Wikipedia:
«In 2023, David Smith, Joseph Samuel Myers, Craig S. Kaplan, and Chaim Goodman-Strauss posted a preprint proving the existence of a tile which when considered with its mirror image form an aperiodic prototile set. The tile, a "hat" formed from eight copies of a 60°–90°–120°–90° kite, glued edge-to-edge, can be generalized to an infinite family of tiles with the same aperiodic property.»

One model comes with some added tolerance and chamfered edges.
Don't forget to mirror some tiles.
You can also print the model in vase mode, upside down.
