1 easily-constructable six-bit constellations:

All arrangements of a two blinkers can be made from 4 gliders. There are many of these which can also be made from 3 gliders.
6b con.
Half traffic light [3]

1 easily-constructable eight-bit constellation:

All arrangements of a boat and a blinker or two blocks can be made from 4 gliders, all arrangements of a tub and a block can be made from 5 gliders, and all arrangements of two tubs can be made from 6 gliders. There are many of these which can also be made from fewer gliders.
8b con.
Two blocks skewed (1,4) [2]

1 easily-constructable ten-bit constellation:

10b con.
Loaf and blinker [2]

4 easily-constructable twelve-bit constellations:

12-bit constellations
Traffic light [2] Half honey- farm [3] Teardrop [2] Butterfly [3]

2 easily-constructable sixteen-bit constellations:

16-bit constellations
Four skewed blocks [2] Blockade (via Lumps Of Muck) [2]

1 easily-constructable seventeen-bit constellation:

17b con.
Traffic light and glider [2]

2 easily-constructable eighteen-bit constellations:

18-bit const.
Interchange [2] Loaf and tub and block and blinker [2]

1 easily-constructable twenty-bit constellation:
