You should put these up on Shapeways. Then people could order them if they don't have access to a 3D printer.

shapeways would be about $10 US actual material cost is 19 cents and 37 minutes to print. A cheaper alternative is to upload the file to https://www.3dhubs.com/ and have it printed with petg layer height 200um would be around $5.
