This site is still under construction, but you can find the old Gear site here.

Hopefully here you'll find all the information you need to get your Keenspace account up and running. Check out the Index of contents below for the listing of what's contained on this site.

If what you're looking for isn't covered here, try posting in the Help Center Forum.

If you're an experienced Space wrangler, please feel free to submit any tutorials or corrections of your own to the current site content.

In exchange I'll be happy to give you advertising space on the page your tutorial will be hosted. Post a message in the Gear Forum or mail me at sphingx (at) yahoo.co.uk for more information.
