Spinning Top - 2 Minutes Spin!

I wanted to make spinning top for my son as he is currently enjoying these kind of toys. As my 3D printed was now busy at the moment I new what needed to be done :)
Design

Designing this top was pretty simple - few minutes tinkering in Fusion 360 to get the perfect shape and figure out the best was to be able to print it on my 3D printer.
Printing and Assembly

I used Nebula Light Green PLA for the print. 5 perimeters and 20% infill. More perimeters or infill should theoretically conclude in better spinning time due to higher mass.
Print both part laying on the flat sides - no supports are necessary.
Assembly is straightforward - just force-push the handle into the body and it is done.
Let me know how long you were able to spin!
