		<title>Progress through May, 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At the risk of getting too wrapped up in tool lust, I thought I should point out a few more tools that you won&#8217;t normally find at a boat shop that nonetheless are, if not critical, extremely useful on a large timber project like this.  Many of these tools come out of the log home [...]]]></description>

		<title>Progress through April, 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The guys have been using the lofting this month to continue making parts. In particular, they’ve been working out the details for making futtocks.  One of the great things about the level of detail in these drawings is that both the front and back shapes of the futtocks are drawn in. One face is drawn [...]]]></description>

		<title>Progress through March 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Working with large timber projects presents some tricky problems that you don’t really run into when working on small boats.  One of these involves drilling holes.  How exactly DO you drill a hole through 24” of oak, and come out exactly where you want to on the other side?  If your angle is off even [...]]]></description>

		<title>Progress through January 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[During January,  Leo, Eric, and Claes focused on building the Stem.  Chris was in New Zealand for much of the month visiting friends and family back home.  It wasn’t all fun and games though, while he was there he worked with some local foundries to make some bronze castings for the boat. The entire boat [...]]]></description>

		<title>Initial work on the backbone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By November 2009, the lofting floor had been set up, and everyone was working on the backbone.  The backbone of Coronet is made up of a series of substantial parts that lie along the boat’s midline: the stem, keel, and transom.  There are other parts that tie these all together, like the gripe, sternpost and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Removing the deck</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We’re catching up on Coronet’s progress here… soon we’ll be up to date. Back in July 2009, Coronet looked pretty much like she had the month before.  Her interior had been long since cataloged and removed. It was all but impossible to imagine how elegant she used to look below decks. Although the ceiling planks [...]]]></description>
