I don't know how it was done by the previous owner, but my intention is:
1 - Measure accurately the required cable length;
2 - Ask a knowledgeable person how much stretching I should expect for
that distance
3 - Build the cables accordingly, making them absolutely identical in
size.
This way, I should manage to get it right by about half an inch. It will
still be possible to adjust, because my aileron control rods are
adjustable.

How will you deal with the natural stretching that will occur in the
cables?

My set-up has got NO turnbucles anywhere near the stick. On the aileron
loop, there is only one turnbuckle, and it is at the back, behind the rear
spar, on the portion of cable that links the two bellcranks.
Of course, to do that, you have to get the length of the two other
portions of cable absolutely right, within the tolerance of your aileron
control horn rod adjustment, and with no discrepancy between left and
right.
