Making a custom flag case is a worthwhile task which involves not necessarily intricate skills, but definitely utmost care and focus. Here are a few tips when making your own crafted output.
First of all, be gentle. Since the materials are rather light, it would be good to have a gentle touch with things. Especially when cutting up pieces of wood for the dimensions, getting too heavy on the cutting may cause errors on cuts or damage to the grain, or perhaps a damaged material altogether. You may also skip the cutting part and leave it to professional wood cutters, but why settle for it if you want to have an output you call your own, right?
When using binding materials for your wood and other stuff, you may want to choose small trim nails which are just a little over an inch long, and are quite small in diameter – perfect for the small-width food used. You may opt to use a nail gun or a brad gun to get the job done of hammering the nails into the grain.
When dealing with the back panel board of your custom flag case, you may want to consider using a luon or any similar wood paneling especially since you would be making drill holes for screws or wall mount fixtures and attachments later on.
Finally, never scrimp on the materials needed for this project such as pencil, circular saw, speed square, mitre saw, and the like – as the purpose and functionality of these equipment are essential to a proper and correct flag case output.
