- I just had to show you all a tour of my dad's machine shop. This was his first business and continues to do it almost 60 years later.

The country needs more men like Dragonman!
and more women like Ava
We dont need more people, we just need to be like them...
@@ericostmann684boobs get views
Yup, need more 67 year old kids in this world.Most people grow up,and out of silly names,we grow out of those fantasy animals that never were real.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅
Both!
WOW, EVERYTHING is BEAUTIFUL, daughter, equipment, shop & tool arrangement etc.
I've never seen a shop that clean! Man knows what he's doing. Beautiful daughter so proud of him.
God Bless Dragon Man. Truly one in a billion.
Dang! He is awesome Ava! I grew up with guy like him around. He is the old normal that this country so desperately needs.
Not many dad's like that around! He builds beautiful bikes and built a beautiful daughter!
I remember this dude from way back in the 70’s. He used to advertise in Easyrider’s. Glad to see you’re still chugging along, Dragonman.
Dam dude, I just made the same comment and then I looked down and seen yours. This makes me feel really old.

@@MrAlittle5150 don’t know what the scene was by you, but the bike scene in the Chicago burbs in the 70s and 80s was up for grabs. It was a non-stop party on two wheels. Be glad you were part of it.
@@jeffreylonigro4081 I just remember, people who rode Harley believed in America. If you rode a Harley you drove and bought American only. Not like today where some guy goes and take his Harley for a ride and then goes home and jumps in his Toyota to go to work. Or these people driving foreign car with Harley stickers on them. Different time, different culture.
@@MrAlittle5150 yup! We rode Harleys because they were the last American made bike! American tools; American truck and American boots. Great point, bro!
Your dad is the most American guy in the country! I really want to meet this man a total beast !
A dads dream,
When his children ask to see what he does for a living.
You can see the pure joy as he gets to explain all that he has and has worked so hard to keep.
If someone were to ask how or why he got any one of them tools he’ll have a story to tell that’ll take half the day!
As a recently retired tool maker/machinist I really enjoyed all your setups and loved the tour, this man knows his trade...Well done
How many years does it take to learn how to do what he does?
I'm just curious.
@@DataLog A life time
I bet Dragon Man was the best dad ever. He has lots of knowledge to share.🙏✅😁 and he looks really fun🥳
Beautiful lady! Beautiful shop very impressive! Wow 57 years God bless you sir and your family!
Ava you have the coolest dad in America!!! Awesome... 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲💪💪
That is one hell of a shop, lots of special set up machines that can handle all Harley problems. Fantastic!!
If I did own a Harley I would most certainly send you the work. Very nice shop. You just cannot replace experience. 👍
I am amazed at the knowledge your Father has acquired over the years , Brilliant 👏! Not to mention the equipment absolutely priceless.
Yea, he's pretty amazing!
Nice shop!! Over 50 years doing this and you leave the chuck key in the chuck on your lathe!! That's one of the first things you learn never to do.
Thank you Ava and Mel. What a wonderful machine shop set up for production. My dad was a machinist mechanic also. He would have enjoyed the tour also.
Our pleasure!
I hope he has someone he is mentoring so his legacy lives on. So much is lost when these people pass on. Love the video
Guys like that don’t usually have patience to teach their skills
Unfortunately, he taught my bother but he sadly passed away. My sister and I know guns, but we have no clue about this business. It's sad.
@@AvaFlanell that’s very sad. But hopefully someone comes along to learn. Their knowledge is so important
You would do well Ava, to learn all you can from your father. Eventually and inevitably, he will be gone and his skills will be gone too unless you take the initiative to learn all you can to pass on to your new and immediate family. I do not say this as an insult please take what you will from this comment. You're a good looking woman and should be thinking about your future and where your place will be in it.
@@AvaFlanellOmg you've lost your brother and your mom, I knew about your mom but not about your brother...I truly hope you guys are doing ok
Man, ... That shop is IMPRESIVE!
Awesome! Love your dad. An amazing craftsman & collector! Mazel tov. Thank you, Mel.
What an incredible wealth of knowledge in a single video. He can do everything and anything he wants to create or build in that shop. Thanks for sharing with us, Ava!
I'm amazed at how much stuff you have and how much stuff you DO!
Thanks for the tour. I run & operate a machine shop along with my brother, started by my dad & grandpap. We do general machine work and make carbide wire drawing dies. A tour like this great just for the fact that 99.99% of the general public have no idea how products are made or repaired now-a-days and the amount of equipment and knowledge it take to accomplish the job. Thanks again.
Very informative tour, thanks Ava.
Absolutely Wow! Nasa is only trotting behind your dad and he looks like a kid with all those years behind him.Thanks for that and Greetings from Ireland.👍
A beautifully setup machine shop ,great jigs to achieve speed and accuracy. Easy to see Dragman is an excellent machinist. 👌
Wow that shop is impressive,your Dad is awesome.Great video.
Mind blowing level of organization, detail, cleanliness, and encyclopedic Harley knowledge.
"That's where I get my OCD from"! Gotta love it! Haven't seen your dad in awhile - looking good and still kicking! From an old Navy Veteran!
You have the absolutely coolest dad possible! Wish I could meet him. ❤️ & Respect !!
Met yall some years back, got the ten cent tour and was blown away with the museum ! hope yall are well and thanks again for showing me and my boys around!
Your dad is AWESOME!! 😂😂
So glad you & Melissa are getting as much info from your father on video for us all to enjoy! Dragonman is a true American treasure!
Simply amazing to see this skill level in a man, and that he still has the passion and love for it.
YOUR BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER , IS AS BEAUTIFUL AS YOUR SHOP AND WORK ETHICS !!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!!❤
Wow. Dude has an awesome shop and gig. His daughter is sparkling as well. Lucky man, blessed.
Not all artists use brushes. I have nearly zero idea what he was talking about, nor do I own a motorcycle, but that was one of the most impressive shops I have ever seen, and one of the most impressive craftsmen I have ever heard. Thanks Ava!
Well said! Thanks for watching 😊
Awesome video. !! Caught one thing, the first rule on a lathe is NOT to leave the chuck key in the chuck. Not busting balls, just an observation in the video. Awesome dude, would love to learn things from him.
agreed....73 yo,semi retired chip maker, 10 fingers
Thank you Dragonman and Ava for showing and sharing your badass shop....... Awesome stuff!
Without question the best I've seen... been riding since 77', well over 500k miles...seen a lot, built a lot... never at this level or craftsmanship... bravo!
Great Shop. More like a Factory. The detail to his shop & setup says it all in the workmanship he must put out. Always nice to see good people (father & daughter).
Wow... I'm 60 a tool and die maker. I'm impressed with all the conventional machines. That's all I've ever worked on in my life. Respect.
Thank You For Your Service 🇺🇲 ! Only The Best 👌 You Are A Top Craftsman And Collector ! Greetings From The Tri - State Area 🗽 ...
You’re father is amazing and extremely well organized, and I love ❤️ the channel 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you so much
Pretty cool Ava it’s always a joy to see you with your family, making time , life is moving so fast we sometimes forget about the most important things and should never leave us , FAMILY 🙏
Agree!

Fantastic shop 😊😊😊
I just Subscribed.
Wow!!! From a fellow machinist. You have restored my faith in America again. A true tradesman!
I'm always impressed. The knowledge, the abilities and the equipment to get it done.
Now that's what I call a machine shop. This is American ingenuity.
Props to your dad. Nice shop and attention to detail.
Hi From Australia A really great setup you have also thanks to your Daughter for organising the look around
Great shop tour..!
Thank you.
I feel guilty looking at her while her dad is there, lol.
Omg lol
@@AvaFlanell Lol
Men of culture…we meet again!
You are a real national treasure. A no bull man. I love what you do and I wish I knew as much about machining as you do.
Wow to Ava and dad’s collection!
What a collection of machinery and tools, very few will have such a perfect setup for working on a particular set of engines. This is the definition of a specialist environment!
If Dragon Man agrees it would be pretty great to see some live stream content of him working in the shop, I feel that a lot of people would watch that content and you could set up a text to speech donation system to play viewers' questions on a speaker to make a bit of extra cash on each job without hindering him too much.
This workshop is AWESOME, just like the man who created it!
The REAL American hero lol
FRICKIN MACHINE SHOP HEAVEN!! I DONT KNOW HOW HE KEEPS IT SO ORGANIZED..
That's a pretty impressive shop. What does this man not do?
Wow man. Set up time is a killer. I’d have to say, yep. You killed it. Working smarter not harder!
That is a huge investment in time, money and material to create what you have there! All that tooling! Very impressive. Thanks for the tour.
That's awesome! Definitely see a special bond between you two!
Can’t believe I see this video…. Dragon man rebuilt two 1950’s panheads for me back in the early 1990’s…. Glad to know you’re still going strong ! Like finding an old friend 35 years later
I'm so impressed with your dad's work ethic. Dragonman reminds me of my dad. They look and talk alike.
That's a hell of a shop, Dragonman! One of the things that strikes me most is how tidy, clean and organized everything is. A professional shop! A lot of shops I walk into look like nothing has been cleaned in 50 years.
I've never seen a more organized and clean shop in my entire life!
This guy is a treasure. I bet you could shut off the lights and he could find everything he needs by memory. Organized.
Awesome shop, and a ton of knowledge that guy has. Love the shirt and hat. Thanks for sharing!!
Love the shop tour. What a wealth of knowledge and tooling. It's really cool to see this tour. I do almost all of my own work on my Harleys' and I was a Class A semi mechanic for 20 years. What a set up for everything HD repair and refurbishing engines and transmissions.
I remember seeing his advertisement in the back of Easyride magazines in the late 80s with the Dragon bike. This makes me feel old.
HELL YEAH!!! Your Dad is one hell of a "Gear-Head"...Thank You for sharing...
Absolutely the cleanest and most organized shop I have ever seen! And the daughter is pretty darned nice too!
Thanks, Mel, Took your tour a few years ago, A Super shop indeed . Shows A lot of skill.
Your shop is a dream! I could spend hours in there working and never complain.
Truly incredible! Absolutely amazing is an understatement. I was a mechanic for a long time before going into another field. I used to have to make my own tools sometimes as well. Nothing compared to what the Dragonman has done. Wow! Thank you guys for giving us the shop tour! 😁
Awesome setup, and great presentation. Thanks
Wow what a shop, it’d be a crime if he didn’t pass that knowledge onto some young kid willing to learn the craft. Daughter is stunning too…..✌🏻❤️🇺🇸
Your dad is one cool guy, his knowledge is incredible & also so freaking cool.
I have seen the dragon bike before it’s really awesome to see the background and history of it and your dad
What a beautiful shop he is definitely a national treasure
Thanks for doing what you do
Such a dichotomy these two... your dad is an incredibly talented man. And a testament to hard work leading to success.
He's a multi-talented dude. Thanks for the shop tour!
I'm impressed and beyond. We need more people like you.
I am IN LOVE with that shop!
😦Oh my God....who knew Melissa had a big sister?!
🐉Dragon Man🐉 has some BEAUTIFUL daughters💓.
With respect Sir.
The absolute baddest man in America!! I really hope he’s passing on all that knowledge to the next generation.
Thanks for the shop tour… that was phenomenal @Ava Flanell
Oh I miss my grandfather, ,this guy has answers to questions that most don't know exist
It's sad to think that when guys like him are gone, all that amazing knowledge and skill are gone with them. Awesome guy, Awesome shop.
That is an awesome machine shop and she is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am beyond impressed!
Wow , that shop is amazing ! And your knowledge of Harley engines seams endless. I hope you have an apprentice to pass all those facts and figures to.
I’ve seen some cool shops but this is by far the top of the heap. Just everything about it and how he keeps it. Sensational.
Your Dad is a charachter .. those type guys are fun to be around !! Lol
Thanks for the great tour. It's funny I was just looking at the pictures of the shop and the dragon bike I took a many years ago when I tour the shop with some true older bikers last week. It's good to see he is still in business and he doing well.💯💯💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍
No twin cams, no fuel injection. Love it!!
Thank you for sharing your beautifull shop and your work.
So much excellence,
God bless you all
So nice to see absolutely passion
IN YOUR WORK
RESPECT!
Very cool dad! Amazing knowledge and skills, very impressive shop tour.
That's the guy you want working on your Harley stuff!! Amazing!! 👍
