We’re always improving the shop, and new tools or upgrades are welcome additions that benefit everyone.

  • To add a new tool page, use this form: Add New Tool
  • Have an idea for a new tool, repair, or upgrade? Pitch it on the Forum to get feedback and see if others are interested.
  • Unsure if Protospace already wants or needs the item? Asking on the Forum is the best first step.
