Hammock Knots

[MarkG]

What knot should I be using to put up my hammock?

I saw a site a few months ago that had a flash clip showing how to do it but as I didn't have a hammock at the time I wasn't paying to much attention to it

My hammock is only a cheep one with no instructions so does anyone know where the site is or were there's a guide :?:

If you ever get the chance, take a look how a hennessy hammock is put up. Those tree hugger straps really do help protect the trees from rope marks and they are so easy to use, I'd use them with all my hammocks.
