I’m watching this on Veterans Day. I told my husband I wanted to make one for his dad’s flag from his funeral. This case is one of the nicest I have seen. I will try to replica it. Thank you for sharing.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Thank you for the compliment!

[@dennissmith5837]

Nice job! The case came out beautifully and you did a really good job on the video.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Thank you!

[@dennissmith5837]

Thanks for the video!

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

You're welcome!

[@dennissmith5837]

Very nice case! I’m getting ready to build one next week that will hang on the wall of a friend who is a Viet Nam veteran. The flag flew out n Afghanistan while his grand son served there sand was able to bring it home for Grampa.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

What a great story of service.

There isn't a Save button.... :( I did send the link to myself via email. Thank you.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Thanks brother!

[@martinjaramillo2429]

This is great. I like the stand especially.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Thanks. It's a priceless moment for the family who received it.

My Dad just passed away and I am going to make a flag case for his flag. . Your video will help me. Also, don't feel bad. I have called myself a moron and an idiot many times doing woodworking. LOL!

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Sorry for your loss, please let me know if I can help.

[@brianlynchmsb]

Beautiful work, buddy. Thank you for the guidance! I'll be making one for my Dad, which I'm sure you can imagine is a bit of an emotional experience. Cheers!

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

They are never easy..

[@brianlynchmsb]

@@DadItYourselfDIY oh I’ve noticed, mock ups have been a nightmare.

[@grumpywoodchucker]

Great work!

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@ferdbirdut]

So what were your final dimension’s?

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

I measured it to fit this specific flag as folded. But here is the article I used as inspiration. www.woodworkersjournal.com/making-memorial-flag-case/

[@dray2023]

What were your dimensions

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Im travelling, so I dont have acess to my sketch book. But here is a great article that is very similar to mine. www.woodworkersjournal.com/making-memorial-flag-case/

[@mkeith1954]

Great Job. One comment, not aimed at you though. The Flag should have been folded with a single star at the top, then two stars and finally three stars. Nit picking I know but as a retiree and the husband of a passed retiree it means a lot to me.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

I would say that the quality and care of our honor guards is questionable. And I wasn't going to refold it..

[@TheGrantAlexander]

Good job going back and remaking it so it fit the right way. Turned out great and it is a fitting way to honour the fallen.

[@DadItYourselfDIY]

Thanks... I am trying to come up with a project to repurchase the other two cases now.
