That is big,,,,,,,,,,,,,but I had a bigger one :93:

Bought a 2 inch allen wrench.  Was 28 inches long.   Sold it to a young customer who thought it was cool.  I buy most any big tool I can get cheap.

Biggest I have is a 17mm, for VW bus oil pans.

Or, in my case for fork tops from mid-'80s Yamaha race bikes.

Speaking of big stuff,  parts store long ago.  Countermans name was Del.  Someone would ask for the biggest cotter pin you got.  Del would ask, 'you sure'?   Then he would haul out the big one, toss it on the counter.  The customer mouth would open,  the pin was over 3 foot long,  and 1.5 inches diameter.  Story was he picked it up in a ship yard,  was good for a lot of laughs

Snap On.  I only have it because  got lucky on ebay.  I'll try to get a pic, and see if I can figure out how to post it.
Edited to add, it's an IMA283.  I have a couple of pictures, but where do I upload them?
