When I installed my turnbuckles, I used someone else's safety wire.  Now I don't know what size to use to replace the turnbuckles after my annual inspection (next month).  Does anyone know the correct size wire to safety the turnbuckles?  Thanks in advance.

		   Per AC43.13-1B/2A "Acceptable Methods, Techniques, and Practices AIRCRAFT INSPECTION, REPAIR & ALTERATIONS" in Table 7-8 "Turnbuckle safetying guide" for 1/8 cable using Single Wrap use .040 Stainless steel, Monel or K Monel or 0.057 min Copper, Brass. For Double wrap use 0.040 Copper,Brass (Galvanized or tinned steel, or soft iron wires are also acceptable for Copper,Brass).All material should be annealed condition.I highly recommend all builders procure a copy of the above AC,  I believe you will find it invaluable.  It also shows the proper way to single or double wrap safetying of turnbuckles.Tony Graziano 601XL, N493TG, 188 hrsPer AC43.13-1B/2A "Acceptable Methods, Techniques, and Practices AIRCRAFT INSPECTION,
