Some tiles associated with the 6th unit cubic Pisot number

Order 7 Demisymmetric Tiles (2c+2c4+2c7+c10)

V. c4 and c7 elements merged

There are 8 tiles in which the c4 and c7 elements are colocated, while the c1 elements are either in their original positions or swapped.

These tiles look very similar. They can be distinguished more readily if the weight function is plotted (as below). Here the purple areas shows those parts of the tile which cover the whole of the corresponding area of the plane, and the green areas those parts of the tile that cover 50% of the corresponding area of the plane, and the relative position of the filled and void regions is more readily seen. However the difference corresponding to the orientation of the smallest element remains scarcely or not visible.

Two copies can (obviously) be put together to tile a symmetric tile. The images below show one copy in red, and a copy rotated 180° in blue; the magenta areas are where the two copies are entangled at below pixel scale.
