The first rules when making your own
flag case is to be patient and prepared. This will make the cutting process a lot more fun and easy.
There are actually places and professionals that offer cutting services, so all you need to do in the end is to nail the pieces together.
Use small trim nails measuring 1 1/4 inches then put the frame together. Next, the glass will be set into the cut grooves.
Prepare a brad gun to make the process easier. Put the frame properly with the glass down to keep it from breaking.
The frame should be put properly on the loon or oak paneling.
Trace the frame’s outer portion. Cut to make the back part of the display case. Stain the edges using the right color. Aim for a color that will properly compliment the items that you will be putting inside the case. You can also use Early American or Minwax-Colonial Maple for oak.
The loon can have 8 pilot holes. At the back, insert the screws as well as the flag to be presented.
All of these will finalize your
flag case.
Review the guidelines and needed materials for excellent results.
Make sure you gather all the materials beforehand to save time and energy:
Circular saw
