    Hey guys viper here!
    I have some cinch buckels coming tomorrow along with stuff to make a new hammock. But what's the best way to attach my cinch buckels to my hammock? Thanks guys!

    If there is a channel then you can run it through the channel. If not you can simply larks head it on behind the ball formed by the gathered end. If you have a ridgeline, try to get it behind the ridgeline.

    Hope that helps

    Alright I think I understand ( I should be able to more so when the stuff gets to my house) so from what I understand is the cinch buckle is attached to a continuos loop of amsteel basically (wrapped on their some other way other then larks head) if that's right what I just said. Wouldn't the buckle end up being like side ways if I just passed the continuos loop threw my end channel and larks headed the buckle with the continuos loop onto my hammock directly, wouldn't that leave the buckle turned side ways?

    If im not making since I'm sorry I'm really tiered ATM and ill correct my self tomorrow lol

    It won't turn sideways. When you get the parts you will say "oh that is so simple"
