What does the title of this mean? Bilateral symmetry is where a pattern repeats left to right, but not radially. So, this top looks very different staring down the X axis than staring down the Y axis. Even so, it is very stable and spins smoothly. It looks great still or in motion. The openings form patterns that change based on the viewing angle and the speed it's spinning.

I've included my STL files, and PrusaSlicer 3MF file. The top is available as 1 piece and two. I recommend the 2 piece. It prints a lot smoother and takes less time (almost ½ the time of the 1 piece). They spin about the same. To assemble the top, just sand the flat art of each top a little to reduce the seam and add texture for the glue, then glue together with medium CA.
You can assemble the top so that the large holes in the top and bottom align or so they
