Handcrafted tools for
lampworkers & glassblowers
About BC Metalworking
All of my creations are handcrafted in Cedar, Minnesota in a small minimalist shop I designed and constructed myself. I know most of you share my love of the old handcrafted arts, and it is my desire to produce high quality, beautiful, custom-built tools for your craft while keeping prices within your reach—so that you can follow your passion too!

Handcrafted Tools for Lampworkers + Glassblowers
All of my tools are handmade with care in my small workshop in Minnesota. The tools are shaped and formed in the traditional ways by fire, anvil, and hammer. Most orders are made-to-order so please allow at least a week for production.
Meet the Artist
Bryan Cristan
Welder, dog trainer, cool dude, metalworker, and maker of fine handcrafted glass blowing tools….
After having tried my hand at several different careers (and although I’ll always love my dogs) I found my true passion with metalworking—particularly blacksmithing and toolmaking. I’ve always loved the ways of the old artisans and have found that high quality hand-made tools are harder and harder to come by—so I decided to make my own.
