@RWP thanks for the shout out.
Main thing: "All rewards must have been produced or designed by the project or one of its creators — no reselling things from elsewhere"
Could just do a preorder for them. Stress balls:

Cool that your family relative has a foam business. That would satisfy the making it yourself requirement.
Yea, would have to be crowdfunding stress balls to avoid trademark infringement on Kickstarter. Could also do crowdcrux stress balls haha.
I think it would be cool to reward members with a physical kind of reward. Maybe members who are successful on Kickstarter could do a giveaway for the product they Kickstarted on the forum or give discounts to forum users?
