"The wood is selected by its color and grain and when a wheel or octagon is made, the parts are cut from the same board and numbered so the grain flows from one member to the adjoining member. I first want to know what awards will be shown in the case. Then I prearrange the awards to determine the size of the case. No award is ever omitted because it does not fit. Where possible, the case is made to fit the awards."

     I have worked with many size flags. There is no standard flag size. The case is made to fit your flag size. All flags are folded and attached to a pattern to prevent sagging in later years. You select the wood. All joints are professionally made. After staining, the cases are given four coats of lacquer primer and sanded between coats and then given a final coat of semi gloss lacquer. If the glass ever breaks, it is very easy to replace."
