Maker kits – Building a kit business, open source hardware and more..

@ Maker Faire MAKE’s Phil Torrone and Limor Fried of Adafruit Industries talked about emerging opportunities for makers to create and sell their work – here are our slides and notes – ZIP (27mb). EDN also has a write up. Each year we’ve seen more and more makers do what they love (making) as a full time job, we put together some of the observations, trends and more on how you could go about doing this too. After our talk we met about a dozen kit makers, we hope to have their kits in the MAKE store soon!
