It's very interesting on the differing ideas and designs of flag boxes. Check out the one in the "General Carving" site. Quite different but nice. It's good to see talent being relayed to those who served their country. It makes one proud.

Congratulations on yours

Bob

Rog,

Nice job and I love what you did with the Stars!

Much better than "generic" five pointers....

Well, I just wasn't happy with the plaque so I added small stars in the lower corners. Now I feel like the piece is complete. Thanks for looking!
