Funny you should ask :) I've been looking up a bunch of this type of thing for the business chapter of the book. The things I've found so far don't quite hit the nail on the head, but might work as jumping off points: http://bloglz.de/business-models-for-open-source-hardware-open-design/ http://p2pfoundation.net/Open_Hardware_Business_Models https://files.nyu.edu/gmp216/public/papers/bmfosh-1.0.html

The stuff here are the most informative posts I've found - though the post from Lars includes NC, which is not open source, though I've pointed this out and he is working on a revision.

I'm working my way through some of Eric vonHipple's work to on Democratizing Innovation, though there aren't direct business models in it.
