Chadwick Parker and Joe Huang, the industrial design duo behind Big Idea Design, have done it again: Sixteen successful Kickstarter campaigns and counting! And two of their last four campaigns broke the $200,000 mark, which the current one might as well. Even if it doesn't, it's already a smash hit: The Bit Bar is compact, yet actually useable screwdriver and bit holder that's already over 1,000% funded.
Parker and Huang were seeking $10,000, and at press time were up to $136,934 in pledges with 27 days left in the campaign. We're mightily impressed with their consistent ability to figure out what people want or need, design a superior or more desirable alternative to what exists, then get it manufactured.
We've written more about what makes these guys so successful here:

Just doing a quick look. The things they kickstart aren't a concept that requires for more funding then the kickstarter posts. The products can be designed and reach a close concept. They just make very viable products. Each product builds on the last or uses material and processes that now they are very familiar with.
