Festool Shop Talk: Episode 13 Brian Presnell @indyurbanhardwood

Brian Presnell: Indy Urban Hardwood Co.   Welcome back to a brand new episode of the Woodpreneur Podcast. Today your host Steve Larosiliere sits down with Brian Presnell from Indy Urban Hardwood Co. Born and raised in Indianapolis Indiana, Brian studied at the Herron School of Art and Design and studied furniture and sculpture back in the 90s.  Brian worked in a variety of museum positions, building things and recycling materials for exhibits and developing his own understanding of urban wood before the term had been coined. In 2000, the museum he was working at underwent some renovations and cleared a load of trees out from the property. Brian then had the idea to bring in a Woodmizer to cut up some of the logs into usable timber. Now 20 years later, it’s an incredible story.  “They were renovating the building, and when they cut some of these big trees down to make space for a new parking garage, I ran over to the horticultural people and said ‘Hey, can we recycle the logs?’ And they're like, ‘What are you talking about?’   Really, the first time I thought there might be a use for this stuff was back then I was just getting going. I had a studio, I studied furniture design, and so I mean, by virtue of being a starving artist, in a way was how I started finding reclaimed and recycling material.   There was a furniture factory on the east side. And I used to dumpster dive and get maple and cherry and other stuff to make some of my early projects with.”  Brian Presnell  Read More

Brian Presnell: Indy Urban Hardwood Co.

If you have eaten charcuterie at Bluebeard or watched a show at the Hi-Fi, you have encountered Brian Presnell's creative solution for the midwestern ash tree epidemic. Indy Urban Hardwood is turning the infected trees from inside the 465 Loop into furniture and art pieces featured in places like King Dough, Sun King Brewery, Ukiyo, The Garden Table, IMA, and more. Presnell grew up with teachers and mentors who recognized his artistic abilities and encouraged him to pursue them, which led him to the Herron School of Art and Design. After graduation, he worked for Design Industries creating displays for shopping mall stores. Anxious about getting a chisel back in his hand, Presnell moved to the IMA's Design Department. When the IMA cut down trees for a parking lot, he recognized that Indianapolis did not have an urban wood business. Now, Presnell's goal is to make urban wood one of the first choices for materials in Indianapolis. Tune in to learn about what happens to excess wood in Indianapolis, about Presenell's creative process, and what happens when a booger ends up on a Rothko painting.
