BTW, my first rc.com slapdown is "daft"? lol  Don't know where 'daft' came from but I like it and might use it again. But to answer your question: Most of the time I build anchors with my rope. I don't use redundant loops when building anchors from slings. I don't uses equalettes. If I use cordalettes I used them according to the intrustics on the packet.

Why in god's name would you want only 1 loop of rope for the master point? sRene...the R is for redundant, which one loop isn't.
Redundant in terms of protection. Because protection is the biggest unknown. For strong stuff you don't need redundancy if you trust your gear.
Editted to remove my sillyness.
