I have made over a dozen hammocks so far, but still find the gather tricky. I am heads down making hammocks for the scouts, and decided to make them with a channel end (at this point), and cinch them with some 550 cord. However, I have seem a few pictures of people adding something similiiar to a nail knot below the "mushroom" of the gatherred channel. Do you use the cord from the channel, seperate cordage, is it really needed or adds any value?
