Blue Line Wood Flags

about us

Welcome to Blue Line Wood Flags! My name is Russ Tyndall and I am passionate about everything CNC! I love to design unique flags such as the thin blue line wood flag for police, the red line flag for firefighters, the yellow line flag for dispatchers and many other variations that are personal to each client.

I am a semi-retired law enforcement employee, located in Northern California and I spend much of my time in the shop working on new designs. In addition to serving in the United States Air Force Security Forces, I have over 30 years of varied police experience. I have served as a Sheriff’s Deputy, Police Officer, Public Safety Dispatcher, Park Ranger and Property & Evidence Manager.. In addition to running BlueLine Wood Flags, I currently work as a Reserve Community Service Officer as a missing persons investigator. I also serve on the State Executive Board of Directors for the California Association for Property & Evidence (CAPE).

I decided to launch Blue Line Wood Flags in 2019 after obtaining my first production grade CNC machine. Like my father before me, I have always had a passion for the graphic arts. The world of CNC has allowed me to marry that passion with computers and technology to create stunning works of art for my clients.

The design process for our blue line flags (and different variants we produce) begins with you providing a few details in the product ordering section. If you desire a shoulder patch or badge graphic on your flag, simply attach the image to your order using our artwork upload page. Preferably, the artwork should be in an .svg or .eps file format. If that’s not possible a .pdf, .jpeg or .png file will work if the image resolution is sufficient.

Upon receiving your payment, the design process for your flag will begin. I will email you a design proof for approval before I begin the actual work. It’s important for you to periodically check your email after placing your order, as I will not begin your project until I get the final go ahead from you. Once you approve your design, its go time!

I will work with you throughout the design process to ensure you are completely satisfied. Usually, you can expect your blue line flag (or other variant) in approximately 2-3 weeks from date of order! Basic flags without customization are often carried in-stock and ready for shipment within 24 hours from time of order, excluding weekends and holidays. Keep in mind the holiday season is often our busiest. If you are planning on purchasing a flag for a Christmas gift, please have your order submitted no later than the end of the first week in December.

If you have any questions about our wood flags, please use our contact form and we will respond to your inquiry as soon as possible, usually within 24 hours.

I would like to thank you for stopping by BlueLine Wood Flags. If you want to purchase an engraved custom flag, I can assure you will receive a quality piece you will be proud to display.

Thanks again and Cheers!
