Watch a Preview Now: About the Host: Claire Minihan is a graduate of the North Bennet Street School's Cabinet and Furniture Program. She worked in a custom cabinet shop in New England for 3 years and learned how to make travishers from Windsor Chairmaker Peter Galbert. Originally planned as a temporary job, making travishers soon became a full-time occupation and she has been making travishers for nearly 5 years. Claire says, "there's something to be said about making your own tools ... you have complete command to make your tool custom to you. Once you're comfortable with the overall process of making these tools, I think you will find these fundamentals will translate when you tune up other tools in the shop".
