To me it looks AI generated and the "designer" never tried to actually print it. I would consider this model to be unprintable as presented. Because to actually print it, it would need to be seriously redesigned with pre built supports.
If I were to design one like this, where would I best go? I'm learning Freecad, but I assume Blender is more suited for this thing?
Yeah, cad software is great for engineering modeling but blender is way better for artistic modeling
Yeah Blender might be the better choice here.
I can whip something similar up in blender for you if you want
That would be amazing, thank you! If you could also give me the project file, I'll use it to learn how to do it.
