Welcome to the Kerbal Space Station Showroom and Market or the KSSSM. 

Post your Space Stations in the Showroom (add #Showroom to your post) or to the market for download (add #Market to your post). The KSSSM suggests that you post in the Showroom before you post in the Market so it is double the looks. Happy Posting ☺.

We already have a thread like this...

Sorry I hadn't realised. Well lest us not worry. I will continue the thread however a slight change will differ it to others as this thread will offer tutorials and detailed craft analysis on all parts

So after only recently joining KSP I have achieved, after 10 hours play time, a stable Kerbin Orbit and a successful deorbit. I am now ready to start launching my first space station.

Congrats! 

Put some pics up once it's done, always fun to see what new players come up with!

@Rocket In My Pocket got any tips for launching the station. Should it be in segments or as a one launch. Plus I've got some pictures of my first orbital craft up there in space (they will be coming soon).

Depends on how big it will be? (Also, how confident are you at rendezvousing?)

I usually launch the "core" of the station as one large launch then add more modules as time goes on/need arises.

The best tip I can give you is to always plan for the future, which in simple term means; put docking ports on everything.

Ive tried rendezvousing with a craft in LKO but I was very bad and missed by 100's of KM. But as they say practice makes perfect

Indeed, it does!

This is how I learned, just follow along step by step.
