Cobalt Colts Template

If you don't have the time to put together an extensive engineering portfolio from scratch, I've got the perfect resource for you. A couple of years ago, the Cobalt Colts released a template to create an engineering notebook that speeds up the process immeasurably. From personal experience, I can say it is amazing. After many members of our team graduated, we were unprepared and didn't have enough time to develop an engineering notebook from scratch. We actually ended up using this resource and getting a couple of awards at competitions that year. Now we develop our own engineering portfolio, but this one is still great!
