    well what i did was..
    • A cover/title page.
    • An introduction.
    • The design brief that you got.
    • An index with
      1) Analysis of Brief.
      2) Investigation and Research.
      3) Ideas and Solutions.
      4) Sketches and Working Drawings.
      5) Testing and Evaluation.
    • and then the rest of the portfolio with a few pages on the above mentioned. Give each heading a title page.
    Be sure to include a Parts List and Manufacturing Process with your Sketches and Working Drawings. All sketches should be fairly accurate and have measurements.
    This shouldn't take more than a couple of days if you get yourself into it.

    what are you making out of curiosity?
