Little Tweeks on Beesley's Flag Case

A few weeks ago, I called Trooper Aaron Beesley's wife to see if she needed help getting the flag case set up with Aaron's medals.  She said she had gotten that set up fine, but the flag was too bulky to fit in the case and the door would not stay closed.  I used rare earth magnets to hold the door closed, but that was not doing it.

She also said that all his badges and medals were making the satin covered foam, sag in the case and asked if I could fix that.

My new miracle cure for what ails me is Industrial Strength Velcro.  Put velcro on the back of the foam and on the back inside of the cabinet to help hold up all the medals, pins, etc.

Bought some brass clasps and mounted those on the side of the cabinet to help hold the door closed.

All in all, the cabinet looks really good.
