The help for Views Attache says that then can "get 'attached" to either a user page or nodes of specified types'
but if I create an attachment display in a View, it seems to only want to attach to another View display, not to nodes. Can you attach a view to a specific node (i.e. node/6) or at least to all of a certain content type? If so, where is that specified?

never used views_attach myself, just knew it was relevant.

This is what I finally used after not finding a solution.
