A desk toy of the famous Penrose Tiling

This model has the dart and kite variation of the tiling with the placement rule circles engraved on the top of the tiles.

What better way to pass the time on a meeting than by building aperiodic tilings :)

When printing you should aim for a ratio of darts to kites (the bigger shape) of 1:Phi. For example if you print 10 darts you should print 16 kites. 

You can print the top layers in a different colour to make the engravings stand out even more.

Tiles are 5mm high and with a 2.5cm edge
