The critical consideration is the size of the flag and the're many sizes thus when folded will require different dimensions . If at all possible, get your hands on the flag and fold it or ask whom ever you are making this for, the folded dimensions of the flag.

IIRC, the ID for the short side is 15-1/2" and 21-1/2" for the base for an honor flag.
Roughly 12-1/2" triangle height.

I meant to add to my last post its a 3x5 flag.
Re: Flag boxes again - Gary G™ - 01-23-2016
The 3 X 5 is smaller than the dimensions I posted, I haven't done that size.

There may be s source to find the folded die, but I woukd wait until I had the flags. This size is about half the size of a traditional memorial flag

Having issues with making the angle cut for the bottom right and left sides. For the bottom board and both sides what should I put the blade on for the cuts.
Re: Flag boxes again - glennw - 02-01-2016
what angle do I cut the bottom angles where should I put the blade angle at for the bottom board and the bottom right and left corners. I have the top at 45 degrees
