Kyle Solheim

Kyle is a Billings, Montana native and a very talented individual who is a proven wiz with a welder and plasma table. Kyle runs our MetalWorks machining & manufacturing.
Kyle has been with MetalWorks since April of 2019 and has been the key to starting up our full-service machine shop. Kyle has made his mark in this industry with his metalworking talents and through fabrication of pieces for industrial, structural and even residential applications.
Kyle is passionate about metalworking and it shows every day. MetalWorks is extremely happy to have him aboard as he steers our manufacturing to bigger and better things.
Landon Burr
Machining Specialist
At only 25 years old, Landon has already produced tens of thousands parts! Even though he has only worked for MetalWorks a short time, he has already made such a difference to our team, bringing an incredible work ethic along with him.
Landon has always liked to build things, going all the way back to when he was a kid constructing bike jumps and benches. He enrolled at Sheridan Collage right out of high school where he got his degree in
Machine Tool Technology.
In his free time, Landon likes camping, being in the mountains, and riding dirt bikes and his 2013 Road Glide with his fiancé Brooke. We look forward to great things from Landon, and you should too! Let’s see what he can build for you!
Jimmy Tucker
Machinist
Jimmy is an accomplished machinist that we would call our “MacGuyver”.
Formally trained and accomplished in manual shop machining work, Jimmy is also versed in CNC work as well as being very good “field machinist”, who was always in demand to show up on
shutdowns and turnarounds.
We are very lucky and happy that Jimmy has decided to bring his talents to Metal Works. Jimmy always comes to work with only the best attitude, and work ethics.
Jason Murnion
Welder
Jason’s our newest member to the Metal Works MT team.
Jason brings top notch welding talents to our team, as well as being another person with a great attitude and personality. Jason enjoys challenges and takes great pride in anything we welds.
Jason is our final important key to being a complete fabrication shop.
Kris Decuir
Officer Manager
Kris is our general office manager, but she wears many hats very well. Taking orders, setting up job packets, marketing, organizing, filing and keeping our group of fabricators on point and running at top speed are only part of what Kris does day to day in our Port Arthur location.
Kris is our swiss army knife, always ready to do anything in order to keep production running and out the door to you.
Kris is the glue that bonds everything together. We are very excited and privileged to have her on our team.
Justin Woods
Shop Foreman
Shop foreman and crooner extraordinaire, Justin comes to work every day with a smile on his face and a song in his voice. Even under the tightest deadlines, Justin knows how to keep cool and keep everyone “on point”, so that jobs go out on time, and our products are top notch.
Justin is also our CNC plasma table expert and master welder, so he is always on task.
Justin runs a crew like no other and he is our spark plug that keeps the engine running at top speed.
