Product Details
FRACTILES are an exciting Magnetic Tiling Toy. Fun and educational! There are 96 magnetic tiles and an 8" square steel board; make your own geometric designs or use the illustrated instructions for ideas.
FRACTILES derives from the word "fractal", the phenomenon of scaling or the repeating of a pattern on every scale. Every pattern we see in our world is only a small part of a larger, yet similar pattern. That larger pattern is also just a small part of an even larger, similar pattern, ad infinitum.
Fractiles pieces are one of three different-shaped diamonds. In all, there are six different angles. All the angles are multiples of 1/14th of 360°. This is why the angles fit together so many ways.
