That’s the one that I was referring to, thanks Steve!
Went to donate platelets as I do every other week and showed the site manager a picture of the framed flag, she bought it, I dropped it off later that day and got an order for another one. Typically when I make a flag I get another order generated from it. The color combination on it came out really nice one of my favorites to date.

Nicely done! I really like the framed flag!
Red stripes I put Ebony stain on then immediately removed it, let it dry for an hour then put the red on it.
White stripes I put light grey stain on then immediately removed it, let it dry for an hour then put the white stain on it.
Union I put Ebony stain on then immediately removed it, let it dry for an hour then put the blue on it.
All Minwax
Gave it a nice deep rich color, the picture doesn’t do it justice.

So I have been busy, I have made three of the new design framed flags as well as some various other projects. I tested the eagle in pine, I spent a good bit of time making it a layered file. Before I cut it again some of the details in the eagle need fattened up or removed.

Current situation, a friend is building a c-10 chevy square body. He wants to cover the holes under the hood with carbon fiber. He brings me a .04 x 24" x 48" piece. He paid $250 for it. Talk about nervous! We taped off the areas with masking tape and marked them up. I then proceeded to draw them in Easel. Had all of them by the third try in MDF, needed to make minor changes to them all went well with the ones with the angles, one of them took one modification to the length, the crazy one was 2 rounds of minor adjustments. I cut two if the strips yesterday they came out good. Will do the big sheet today!

How did the carbon fiber cut?
They came out great, how are you going to install them on the truck?
Please take and post pictures when they’re installed.
