This is a flag box sized to hold a 3x5' U.S. flag in a standard triangle fold. It is built fairly simply with the only detail being a combination miter/dovetail joint on the top corner to both hide the slots holding the glass and provide a high amount of structural strength. This particular model was built for an Air Force Veteran and, on a challenge, was constructed without the use of electricity. No exaggeration: A saw, chisel and hand plane made this from a single board. It is a massive time commitment but provides an extra-personal touch.

Good Morning. My name is Matthew White and I've been a woodworker since 1998. I'm mostly self-taught and I've been adding to my skills ever since.
By day I'm in the Air Force and I found woodworking to be an excellent creative release. It's also given me the opportunity to give back to those who have served.
I've burned murals for conference centers, built shadow boxes for retired Chiefs, and had my work grace offices in Washington D.C. I've had my work presented to Colonels and Airmen completing basic training.
It has been an awesome experience to share and I'm always open to a new project or challenge.
