Context, I'm at a dedicated Hydraulics shop right now and have been so for about a year, I think I've made a post bitching about my job here before but I'm seriously considering the switch over, Small shop, limited space and everyone here sucks lol, but oh well. im wondering if there was anything specific I need to jump over to heavy equipment, looking to get an apprenticeship and my local Deere or cat dealers. I have my basic tools, wrenches up to 2", sockets up to 1½, air impacts up to 3/4, pry bars up to 45" random stuff like hammers and mini sledges, chain wrench, stuff like that that'd apply, surely I'm missing stuff but that's why I'm writing this post, what else do I need before I attempt to jump over?
