FilletWorks, LLC. was born out of a need for real “boots on the ground” professionals in the welding consulting space. We are not just another consulting company made up of new college graduates. We are experienced, certified, industry professionals that have spent our careers working in the field and in factories solving welding problems and creating solutions.

Meet our Leadership Team

Samuel Chance - President

Inspired by mentors in the welding industry, Sam began his career in the welding industry as a production welder, so he knows the challenges that welders face every single day. He has worked as a welding engineer, and welding project manager with extensive experience working in contract manufacturing, primarily on Aerospace and Naval Nuclear components, as well as working for OEM’s in the Agricultural and Heavy Industrial equipment industries.

He is currently serving on the AWS D17k Subcommittee and AWS B2B Subcommittee for welding code development and is the 2022 United States Delegate to Commission XV of the International Institute of Welding in Tokyo, Japan.

Kyle McNew - Vice President

Kyle has been working in the welding industry for over 20 years. He started welding on his father’s tree farm in southern Michigan. In high school, Kyle took welding career classes and soon after began working at a local manufacturing company. Kyle has held positions as Production Manager, Plant Manager, Quality Manager, and EHS Director over his manufacturing career. He has over 20 years of real-world experience working alongside welders “on the shop floor”, he’s not just another office manager; he’s an “in the trenches” leader.

His experience in production management brings a refreshing perspective as he is often the “voice” of production to ensure that we are meeting engineering, quality, AND production goals.
