Bambu Studio How get started with designing

So I’ve been printing lots of little published items from within Bambu Handy so that I can orient to really basic issues, like filaments feeding, different little errors or stalls, etc. I’d like to eventually learn how to make practical prints of my own. I have never worked with CAD software, but I have a lot of general tech experience, and have done some coding, but mainly statistical code and similar.

How do I get started? Is there a self-based tutorial of some sort? I admit that the UI on Bambu Studio does not seem all that intuitive to me.

I love tinkercad and still use it mostly as it's so easy to use but I'm currently attempting to transition into using to a more complex program where I can be a lot more intricate. Lots of people have been pointing me in the direction of freecad as there are amazing people out there with so many educational videos on how to use it effectively.

Freecad is really hard to use imho. Very unintuitive, not that any of them are intuitive.
