How to Make: Veteran's Memorial Flag Display Case
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- This past April my father-in-law, Leo, passed away. Leo was a Captain in the US Navy and spent the majority of his life serving this Country. The family members asked if I could make a display case for his Memorial Flag, and I was honored to do so. While I was at it, I decided to make another one for my Uncle Al who served as a paratrooper for the US Army in the 1950s and passed away in 2014. I decided to inlay yellow heart wood strips to represent their military rankings.
I would like to Thank both of these men for their years of service, as well as all the men and women who have and continue to serve our Country.
The folding of the flag is a ceremony honoring the passed veteran. There are twelve fold , each representing something. From eternal life to In God we trust. Once the flag is folded it should remain folded. So making a nice case for the flag is a good way to keep it. The case will allow you to display it and at the same time protect it . So if you have a friend or family member with a flag without a case , make them one. They will be grateful.

Thanks for showing the family that they were LOVED . I served and returned ,remembering those lost. Project looked outstanding. THANKS
Thank you and thank you for your service 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻.
So Touching! My 71 year old Brother will be laid rest this Afternoon in Leesburg, VA.
Sorry about you brother. It really felt good to make these for family members .
The Muz Shop Thank you,
Gorgeous. My dad passed away in July and I'm going to build a case for his flag. I appreciate your sharing this.
Sorry about your Dad but awesome you are going to make this for him. 👍
Thank you. I'm looking at adding a drawer below the flag to place some items. Still working through how to design that. I think I'll use your method to create the "face" for the glass.
Great project sir. Thank you to your uncle for his dedicated service to this great nation. Love the whole story behind the project. Awesome work.
Thank you so much , it was diffidently one of my most satisfying builds....
Excellent craftsmanship! Thank you.
Thank you, I really appreciate the comment...
Very nice job! I also noticed the jump wings on the flag, Airborne!!
Thanks and you are right he was a paratrooper. 👍
@@TheMuzShop I was with the 82nd Airborne Division 1968-1970. Curios as what what division he was in?
I'm thinking of making these for our local veterans in our town and your video is going to make a great reference
for me.
Thanks again,
Peter
Outstanding !
Thank you👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you. I felt honored to make these for the men who served. 👍🏻👍🏻
Mike, that's a masterpiece! Well done, my friend! It turned out so awesome and what a great way to honor their memory.
Fisher's Shop thanks Drew. This one really felt good to make. I was honored that my wife’s family asked me to make one instead of just buying one from the funeral parlor.
Yeah you did a wonderful job. I absolutely love the stripes you put in!
A very good video and you did an amazing job. As a veteran myself I appreciate your uncle and
father-in-law’s service. My father recently passed and I have his flag. He served in Korea during the conflict as a marine, then did 22 years in the army and two tours to Vietnam.
My wife and son are both veterans and my son recently got back from his second tour to Afghanistan. We have a long history of family in the military.
I really like your version so once my shop is finally up and running I have eight of them to build. I saved your video so I have a reference. Thanks again.

Thanks and my father served in Korea in the army. Glad my video will help on your build..... happy building. 👍👍
Excellent video. I need to make one (my first time) and this is really helpful. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the nice comment. 👍🏻👍🏻
very nice!
That is an excellent job. Well done.
Thank you ! I really appreciate that and thanks for watching...
Really enjoyed watching your attention to detail, a real craftsman. Great Job
Thank you , I really appreciate that.
Wonderful, heartful, meticulous work. Beautiful tribute. A
Thx Arthur..
Not only was is appropriate to use old church pews, but it was walnut! Absolutely beautiful build.
Thank you!!! I'm glad you liked it.. The families really appreciated them ......
Hey sir I just found your video and I know it’s an older video, but I’ve got someone that lost a veteran family member and I wanted to gift them with a flag case but I don’t know the dimensions of the flag when folded. Do you perhaps have the dimensions of the box you made?
I thought I kept my drawing of the flag case but can't find it. I was lucky to have one of the flags on hand while I was making them. I google the measurements of the fold flag and they say it's 22 1/2" at the bottom and 16 1/2 " from bottom to the tip. Hope that helps. See if you can borrow the flag for the build. Sorry and thanks for watching.....
Great job, can you tell me what the dimensions of the sides and bottom are? Thank you.
Thank you and sorry I don't have the dimensions anymore or the cases. Hopefully you can find them in another video. What I did was put the flag on a large piece of paper and traced it, then design the case around that.....Hope this helps.
@@TheMuzShop Thank you anyway, I have seen so many different sizes even on official sites. I wanted to have mine ready for my wife so it would be extra special for her.
@@franktaitano6288 Wow! Frank that would be really cool. I'm not quite sure where my uncles is because I have 5 cousin that live far from me and not sure who has it . But if you would like me to track it down I can try ..... let me know. It's was a lot easier have the flag in hand. Thank you for your services🇺🇸
@@TheMuzShop That’s wonderful you offered thank you so much. I will contact my local VA office here and see what they say once they give me their specifications I will go with that and start to build. I am inspired by your style.
@@franktaitano6288 Hope it works out for you. If you have any questions feel free to email me. themuzshop@gmail.com. Also I would love to see a pic of the end results. Happy building…..
Nice job
Thank you so much.
What are the dims?
Thank you for this video. I am planning on making a display case for my father who was a career soldier in the Army and very recently passed away. I will use your instructions as a guide.
First off sorry about your father. I'm so glad that this will help you make one for him. You making it will make it so special. Thanks for watch.
