> I have not yet printed and tested this exact model!

Sadly that sums up the 3D printable scene perfectly. So many times I’v seen someone creating X for Y but they don’t have Y to test it but “it should work”.

Looks like the same person made a typeball for Cherokee, and that comes with a picture of the printed output:

So maybe Comic Sans (and Wingdings) will work as well.
