Hands on help...

Here is my 15 minute version... It took longer than expected because of all the tedious vertex alignment, but it is worth alignment to keep things nice and tidy.

Oh I see. If I were going to start with assuming the solid bits were hexa meshed, then I would probably just mesh the surrounding area with Tetra. Then Merge hexa and Tetra. Prism will be more of...

Sorry, you have lost me. Not sure what you are talking about now. Maybe a picture to illustrate.

Poor quality tetras after a merge with very thin hexas should be expected. The high aspect ratio...
