In one spatial dimension, quantum systems with an attractive three-body contact interaction exhibit a scale anomaly. In this work, we examine the few-body sector for up to six particles. We study those systems with a self-consistent, non-perturbative, iterative method, in the subspace of zero total momentum. Exploiting the structure of the contact interaction, the method reduces the complexity of obtaining the wavefunction by three powers of the dimension of the Hilbert space. We present results on the energy, and momentum and spatial structure, as well as Tans contact. We find a Fermi-Fermi crossover interpolating between large, weakly bound trimers and compact, deeply bound trimers: at weak coupling, the behavior is captured by degenerate perturbation theory; at strong coupling, the system is governed by an effective theory of heavy trimers (plus free particles in the case of asymmetric systems). Additionally, we find that there is no trimer-trimer attraction and therefore no six-body bound state.
