Description

This is the Einstein Tile - a shape discovered in 2023 to be the worlds first aperiodic monotile. This shape is the first discovered solution to the Einstein problem, where a single shape can tessellate a plane without ever achieving a regular pattern. Compare this to a hexagon or square, which can tessellate a plane infinitely by repeating the exact same shape. as you zoom out, larger hexagons and squares are formed from the hexagons and squares. This shape does not have that property, and that makes it special.

 

There are a ton of different tiling patterns you can make. Some patterns have voids and others tessellate entirely, i encourage you to make some really cool patterns for the fridge or whiteboard.

 

Pause on whichever layer in your slicer looks like THIS:

You'll get a notification when your printer is paused and you can insert a 6x3 magnet. The fusion files are available for anyone who has different magnets.

 

I recommend printing with 0.25mm layer height and pausing on layer 17. this also allows two color tiles to be split evenly in the middle.

i made this model myself, and id really appreciate a boost

Currently printed with 4 SILK dual or tri-color filaments I will test with other finishes 😄
