Topic tags/keywords: question tip resource

I was presented with a flag at my Dads wake last week he served on the USS Baltimore in WWII it was a touching ceremony. I would like to build a case for it and display some photos below it the question I have is does the flag fit in the display with no space around it? The photos I have seen seem to shows the flag fit snugly on all 3 sides, is that a safe assumption?
Thanks

No red should show through, only stars on blue. I’d be happy to help you through the case joinery. Max -- Max the "night janitor" at www.hardwoodclocks.com
