    This paper concerns the kinematics of a saturated packing of 16 tetrahedra connected via 32 spherical joints which has been described by \textit{H. Harborth} and \textit{M. Möller} [``Saturated vertex-to-vertex packings of unit tetrahedra'', Geombinatorics XVII, No. 2, 53--56 (2007)]. Packings of this kind are used as models of zeolites. Some of their geometric properties have chemistry interpretations.
