About

They are hand-made quality wooden flags with carved stars and emblems. Our five-star rating exemplifies the quality; see our many customer comments.  We go the extra mile in build process.

In November 2018, Jeremiah asked me to make a wooden Betsy Ross Flag for his Dad; this was the start of our business.   It grew from word of mouth through Facebook and along with our website.  We are making them as fast as possible; they take about eight hours to build, which does not count the paint and glue drying time.  We make them in my home in Bella Vista, Arkansas, Northwest Arkansas (NWA), near Walmart's home office in Bentonville.  

We handmake flags in two sizes.  Our Standard-sized flag is 3 feet wide and 19.5 inches tall, and our Small flag is 18.25" x 9.75".  They should be displayed inside or placed outside in a protected environment.   

Our flags have carved stars and emblems, not painted on the wood, with our quality craftsmanship.  Our business is truly a fun grandfather and grandson business.  Click here to see all the flags we offer.  We also make quality custom flags too.   

Many customers consider them as heirlooms.  See what our customers say about them.  We received so many testimonials and are very proud of them.

I was born and raised in Dayton, Ohio; what a great place to be raised.  After graduating from High School, I went to Hanover College in southern Indiana overlooking the Ohio River and graduated in 1965 with a major in math and economics. 

My first job after graduating from Hanover College was with NCR in Dayton, Ohio.  I started my computer career as a programmer, where I saw my first computer.  Most kids today are touching them before they are one. 

Fifteen months later, I received a letter from President Johnson to report to the Army.  Because of my computer programming experience, I quickly enlisted to ensure that I would attend Signal Corps Officers Candidate School (OCS).  This branch gave me the best chance to continue with my computer skills.

I graduated from Signal Corps Officer Candidate School in July of 1967, and my assignment was with the Army's Adjutant General's Command in the Pentagon as a data processing officer.  I was in charge of a group of programmers redesigning the Army's computerized personnel system for all Army Divisions worldwide while switching from service to social security numbers, which was done ahead of schedule. 

After receiving my top security clearance, I was selected twice as the Pentagon Duty Officer for an evening from 5:00 pm to 5:00 am. Being chosen was an honor. 

On the desk, I had phones labeled Secretary of Defense, Secretary of the Army, etc.  This was a big responsibility.  Most of my calls were from congressional staff regarding Vietnam casualties.  I received a call from Indiana Senator Bayh, and I will never forget how polite he was.  Around midnight, the procedure was to sleep on the Adjutant General’s couch.  He was the person who signed my commission paper, so this was very special.  A few months later, I was again selected for this role.  

In implementing our new computer system, I took training teams to Germany, Vietnam, Hawaii, Okinawa, and several Army posts in the US.  What an excellent assignment.  I had some of the most rewarding years of my life and wouldn't trade it for anything.  

After fulfilling my military assignment, I returned to NCR in Dayton.  In 1972, my department moved from Dayton, Ohio to San Diego.  I held numerous positions, including software development manager, and worked in customer support, assigned to major customer accounts:  Reuters in London, Southwestern Bell, Lowe's Home Improvement, and JCPenney. 

My last assignment was in sales support for large Teradata Database Systems, a division of NCR, which was later spun off as a separate company.  I moved to Bella Vista, Arkansas, in 2005 and continued to work remotely until January 2006, when I retired.
