COMPONENT DESIGN FOR ASSEMBLY
After the final concept presentation, MWDesign will focus on the approved product concept. This will be done primarily through 3D CAD modelling. We will further development the CAD models into precise components incorporating all features from the final concept design. The objective is to develop the design to allow us to create a prototype for testing, before investing in tooling.
Focusing on individual part components, MWDesign will refine the components and design out the cost to enable us to maintain quality while meeting our budget cost. We will begin engineering the parts for the product, focusing on functional aspects of the design.

OPPORTUNITY
Ball On A Rope
Conrad Engelbrecht came to us with an old homemade golfing device that he had found in his father-in-law's golf bag in the attic. A golf ball attached with string to a metal stake. Conrad and his son had such a wonderful time hitting the ball around their backyard, that he thought he should develop the design and take it to market.
The idea is simple, yet easy and fun to use, compact and affordable. Rather than spending the time or money going down to the driving range, you can set up the Golf BOAR (Ball On A Rope) in your backyard. You may hit the ball in any direction, with any club, and the ball will stay within string's length.
OPPORTUNITY
Practice Made Portable
MWDesign had a great time working with Conrad, sketching and rendering out new forms for the main body, designing a new and unobtrusive method of embedding the string into the golf ball to ensure it would feel the same when hit and would not damage the face of an expensive golf club!
We designed a removeable stake to make the device more compact to be able to fit in your golf bag or take it with you on holiday. We incorporated a ball clip and string wrap design with smooth pivoting stake, to allow the string to unravel easily when setting up your Golf BOAR, yet keeping everything tidy and tangle-free when packed away.
OPPORTUNITY
Outdoor-Ready Performance
MWDesign and Conrad explored many concepts and produced many prototypes to test the strength, function and durability of the design. We even incorporated UV and water-resistant string to allow you to leave your Golf BOAR set up on your lawn to use anytime you need.
BRANDING
Building The Brand
Golf BOAR needed branding, a website and a kickstarter campaign to help launch the idea and get it noticed.
The Golf BOAR (Ball On A Rope) logo needed to capture the public's eye as a unique and fun way to practice golf. The abbreviation becoming BOAR gave us no choice but to embrace the four legged creature in all its glory and have it as the
Golf BOAR mascot!
Once the logo design was done, a brand manual was established in order to proceed with website and kickstarter campaign design. Colours and assets of the Golf BOAR logo were reflected
in the designs.
The logo needed to be able to be used as a stamp for printing onto various assets like the golf balls, hats, shirts etc as well as be machined into the injection moulding tooling for manufacturing the Golf BOAR device.
