Recommended Tools, Materials, Apps, and Services

At Green Shoe Garage will look to integrate the best tools and technology into everything we do. Over the years we have discovered some great hardware & software tools and services that we use every day. We recommend taking a look at them if you’re interested in making things yourself. We try to keep this updated as machines go out of production. Many of these tools are entry level so that cost is less of a concern if you are just getting started.

Lastly, links that start with amzn.to are Amazon Affiliate links for which we receive a small commission if you purchase with the link. We are NOT paid by the manufacturer to post the link, we only provide affiliate links we actually purchase and use in the workshop.
