This thing is unbelieveable!!! Available at Costco for about $700.

Wow! If that thing was full of tools and fell on you, you'd probably die. Very awesome though, all your neighbors would be over grunting and snorting...

Man.... you could fit two or three little kids in there- uh... i mean.... think of all the tools you could keep in there

Looks like it weighs a ton though. I'd love to have that tool chest.

Did you buy that bad boy? Looks Schweet!

Leave it to Bret to find something at Costco.

Seriously, that looks killer, you should buy that Bret.

Did you break the tow rope pulling it home so it got stuck on the sidewalk?

LOL! Yeah, that's the standard I require for all my garage purchases. There has to be a chance you'll die if it falls on you. That's how I know it is good. I'm always asking the guys at Sears that.

I *should* buy it. Just one little problem: The tool chest is 41.5" wide. Know how much room I have to fit it in? 40.0"

I suppose I could keep it someplace else but I had custom cabinets installed at just the right place so my existing tool chest would fit with some room to spare.

I guess I could unmount my cabinets and workbench, move them 2" or so, remount, and have a perfect place for the tool chest. I'm still deciding what to do. But I really really really like that tool chest.

Whoa! Which of those drawers holds the Flux Capacitor??

Hehehe NICE.

Call me a purist .. but if it doesnt have Snap-On on it, it doesnt get in my garage.

Had to sell my roll cab when I emigrated

But the top box and tools are mid-atlantic somewhere.

Finally I'll be able to actually DO something!!!!

Must be nice to have the megabucks to blow on a Snap-On combo. I priced a comparable set up (40" wide, 25K cu in storage) and got a price of about $3100. Of course if you want something fancier, Snap On can assist. I saw prices in excess of $5000 for a 30K cu in chest.

For $700 the Hammerhead is an amazing value. But if ya gots the dough, roll with Snap On!!

Is that measured with the side handles removed?

You might kick yourself if you let it get away from you. Some Costco items (particularly tools) are never re-stocked once they are all sold.
