The simplest version of Penrose tiles I've posted so far. They print quickly and can be assembled easy.

There's not much to say that I haven't said already in the description of more ambitious designs like Penrose tile set with hidden snap fittings. These are simply flat pieces that assemble like a jigsaw puzzle. They print at 2mm height but that can be scaled up or down for faster printing or for a more solid feel. You can try scaling them in planar dimensions, but the boundaries are adjusted for this size and the fit will be very loose if you make them too big.

They hold together well at 2mm thickness and the pattern is liftable.

I have been reluctant to make a design like this, because I find the irregular boundaries distracting. However, if you just want to make a lot of tiles to fit together, this make be what you're looking for.
