What about a DIY Forum?
Have you considered a Do It Yourself (DIY) forum, for people who make attachments, accessories, modifications etc...
There are a lot of postings, and threads about home made things. what specifically come to mind are the following at present:
Lightning triggers, electric cable releases, gimbal heads, lens mounts for the 300mm F4, modifications to right angle view finder adaptors........
I am not sure where you would put it, perhaps as a sub-forum off the Pentax Camera Accessories Forum?

I third it!
And we could probably post a few links to cool DIY photo stuff from all over the net and DIY sites like instructables.com

Great idea. Anything I can make or modify for other uses beats buying something any day.
