Elm Counter For Powder Room
Builder submitted an inspiration picture of powder room counter that their client wanted to get. Found elm slabs that worked perfect! Counter is 36" wide x 23" deep, with 12" skirt on front. Wood is at approx. 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" thick. All finished with satin oil uerathane finish. This is for counter only. Note: Elm is getting more scarce and difficult to obtain the material at times. Alternative woods may need to be discussed and used.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
Started my business in 2007, after someone who knows I enjoy woodworking, asked me to build fireplace mantels for them. I have had interest in woodworking long before this, and has been great to be creating wood products for people who enjoy the rich, warm, look of wood.
Design & building of wood fireplace mantels, surrounds, as well as other woodworking.
Looking for that unique design? Consider working with me!
I try to give the best effort in making a product that you will enjoy for many years!
My motto is "build it like it is going to be yours", a statement that my high school carpentry teacher told us.

For Custom fireplace mantel5.0Leland was very attentive to ensure he was provided all the necessary information needed to help me as a customer. He asked for questions and clarity at all stages of the project from quote through delivery to make sure i was happy and would be getting the correct product for my needs.
The mantel was a custom fit and based on the information I provided he found an adjustment to make sure the mantel fit my fireplace correct.
The product delivered matched his high quality customer service which he also provided. I would strongly recommend working with Leland on projects.

For Walnut mantel5.0Working with Lee was a great experience! We were originally going to go with walnut, but after discussing and seeing some of Lee's work with Flame Birch, we switched to it. Lee was in contact regularly, involved us every step of the way, and the result was spectacular! We now have a beautiful one-of-a-kind flame bitch mantel.

For Maple Fireplace Surround With Copper Accent5.0I love the fireplace mantel surround that Leland Franke made for me. He started with a detailed drawing of the plans, including measurements, to make sure it was what I wanted. He worked with me throughout the process to make sure that the measurements, design, wood, and stain color were exactly what I wanted. Once he started working on the project, I received nearly daily updates with photos showing the progress, which made it fun and exciting!! The finished product is gorgeous, and I can't wait to have it installed in my living room. I highly recommend Lee Franke of Custom Woodgrains!! Susan Temple, Mendota Heights, MN

He wrapped it really nicely and it came in a nice crate, he communicated with me and sent me pictures during the process and he delivered what he said he would.
I'm very happy with this service and would definitely use Lee again!
