start a 3d printing business. Step 1: Have a youtube channel Step 2: Get a printer company to partner with Step 3: Make a fake video of starting a 3d printing business to market a overpriced printer that you just partnered with Least he disclosed it, doesn't change the fact that video was totally pointless and nothing but a 7 minute advertisement of a website and a printer at the same time.

At cons, since it's already a niche thing, you are upping your chances at selling more at different prices and individually if you spend say a day or two at the con. It also creates the FOMO effect of that one Val player that sees them and really wants one.

The Non-Commercial clause means that you can NOT use it commercially. Even if it didn't have the Non-Commercial clause most models still have the Attribution clause. It means that you have to give every customer a link to the designer, a link to the model itself, and a link to the full license deed. So basically your your first order of business was to violate the license terms and plagiarize someone else's work. Looks like you fit right in with the other Etsy 3d printing parasites.
