Just wanted to let you know this is an amazing representation of an engineering notebook. So great that my college professor used your video as reference material in my engineering design class. I came from an FRC team and our notebook was never as organized or as detailed as yours is!
Thank you guys so much!!! I watched this video a few months ago as an amateur. One design award, 2 judges awards, and 250 pages later, I can’t thank the people that helped me enough!
Thank you so much for this video! First year of robotics, got design, innovate, create, etc. at regional level comps and innovate at provincials! The only awards I got was engineering notebook ones and it's al thanks to this video.
I've gone to nationals so many times and always won best engineering note book because I implemented color in my notebook designs with a color key and of course the designs were drawn really well with 3D aspects and dimensions. My first ever notebook is still used in my high school to teach current students in VEX.
Thank you so much for this excellent resource! This just became a standard part of my team's start-of-year training. I especially like how clearly you communicate not just what you did for each part, but why you did it the way you did.
For everyone wondering where she got the notebook, it is the BookFactory Black Engineering Notebook from Amazon.com It comes in many sizes and colors :D
Thank you for this great video! I know this was 3 years ago but it’s sooooooo relevant to what my team is doing in robotics now. Keep up the good work!
Liz Gallo Hello! My name is Abagail Hanson and I am the creator of this notebook for my robotics team out of Lake Stevens. I would love to hear if you have a serious offer for me! You can email me at abbhanso@gmail.com
Great notebook, thanks for sharing it. This is a nice resource for training students. The Front view and the Top view should be switched I believe, unless you are using some Drawing standard I am not aware of. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for the information! This is my second year in robotics. My notebook is already really good :) P.S Last years notebook was the absolute worst notebook EVER :(
I might cry. I have already started my team's notebook and it's literal trash compared to this. It's to the point where I would be more comfortable buying another notebook and starting over because I've screwed up so much. I'm going to cry. Someone help me on what to do because this isn't ok. I'm too far in to start over but what we have is trash. Competition is in less than 10 days and I only have 7 pages done in this trash notebook. Help. Me. Edit: i'm vvv sorry i wrote this late at night whilst having a mental breakdown everything is good
So guys I did cry several times but I started the notebook over. I made it to a little over 50 pages before yk comps got cancelled bc of covid. But, every comp we went to my notebook won us the excellence award except for one where we didnt get the excellence but we got the design. I put alot of hours into it and it paid off
I know this is late but I don’t think 7 pages is too far in but I get the stress. Try to make sure to do pages over time because judges can tell when notebooks are rushed or done last minute. When a judge reads the notebook, they maintain the theme of quality over quantity in their judgment. Biggest thing is to follow rubric because getting a perfect score on the rubric is not as hard as it sounds yet it can boost you above other major teams in a competition (even if their notebook looks high quality, if they don’t have a perfect score then it’s beatable).
Why do you have typed up info? I was told just handwriting in black ink. Only the photos and codes can be in typed format and glued/taped into the notebook?

Could you by chance link to any other great videos for start-of-year training? We are total newbies!
@@johnlemke7686 yeah...
Thank you for explaining this in detail! I've asked people how to do an engineering notebook, and I've never gotten a solid answer
Thanks! Very organized notebook. Because of this my team got the design award to worlds
huge help for our freshman teams, even our veteran team got some help out of this. genuine huge help. thank you guys!
YES this is exactly what judges want! from my experience before you even start brainstorming\sketching a robot do a in depth game eval.
Very good!!! Finally having my team members see another notebook have made them realise that what I try to do for the notebook not useless!
For everyone wondering where she got the notebook, it is the BookFactory Black Engineering Notebook from Amazon.com

Oh my gosh this is the best engineering notebook I have ever seen!

Let me know when you are looking for a job. I will hire you. Excellent video! Excellent notebook!

Side note: when putting pictures in your notebook make sure to initial it and date it at the bottom of the picture (half on and off the picture)
This video was extremely helpful in all kinds of ways, Thank you
Great notebook, thanks for sharing it. This is a nice resource for training students. The Front view and the Top view should be switched I believe, unless you are using some Drawing standard I am not aware of. Keep up the good work.
Oh yeah you’re right
very helpful! Thank-you!
Thanks this helped me out a lot
Very nice. Mine is like yours but I can’t draw so I just print out pictures.
Thank you so much for the information! This is my second year in robotics. My notebook is already really good :)
P.S Last years notebook was the absolute worst notebook EVER :(
That's a really nice coke bo-- or sorry note book
LMAOO
Nice work
What was the page that you skipped over? It was between the Table of contents and Game Field Picture
It is a page that walks through our engineering process. It has a diagram as well as explanations for what we do in each step
Good starting point!
Would you say that judges don’t really care about the proportions of who writes in the notebook for Vex? Is Vex IQ any different?
Quinn McGinley I would say the overall quality of a notebook (in both VRC and IQ) is more important than the variety of team members who work on it.
Thank for your sharing!
Good Job on the vid!!! Feedback: Don't advertise Coke, advertise Mountain Dewww!!!
LMAOO
cool cool, now time to go try hard

Well, I was about to comment this, but you beat me to it! I feel your pain, honey.

• s k y l a r • so much for competitions. Corona ruined that

How great!
where did you buy the actual notebook? Great work!
never mind lol it was the first thing that popped up on Amazon
What did you search up
You search up engineering notebook
Yeah I found that out 2 months ago and found it, but thank you
cool
Why do you have typed up info? I was told just handwriting in black ink. Only the photos and codes can be in typed format and glued/taped into the notebook?
vex
You are right. I am not sure why she did that.
Handwriting would probably be better. It just depends on the state you’re in and how your judges feel about it.
Our enter notebook is digital :D
Where'd you get a notebook like that?
WOW.
on ur front side and top view did u do the exact number of holes or just aproximate or a ratio?
where did you get this notebook?
ok noice :)
ok
hello
have a good day i'm about to.......
Cool
cool
cool
Who hurt yooouuuuuu, why do you sound so depressed?
That’s a garbo notebook, our organization has won 5 design awards at worlds.
if you didn't like it then why did you watch it
*slow clap* good job? Glad to know there are nice people in the vex community.
This comment is a G1 violation and I am personally offended and victimized by your statement.
*joking* *joking*
Instead of taking down her hard work, why don't you share why your team won 5 design awards at worlds?
Ya boi I agree 100 Parente
