Default Venom Creeper Custom tube Chassis build

ok guys. I just placed my order for a Venom Creeper and all the parts i want to put in it. I already dont really like the body and wantto upgrade to a custom tube chassis. What materials do you need, and where do you get them?
I have heard some stuff about automotive tubing but i couldnt find any on the net.
Also Brazing is easy i can weld do no problems here, but will any regular solder work? or flux? what do you suggest!?
OK Thanks in advance, i will start a new thred when i start my build!
Thanks in advance-
Angus

Default ?

If you go to YouTube, you'll find hundreds of build videos, some good, others not so good, but you'll get a good idea of what's involved. Also, if you're going to comp it, make sure you check out the rules b4 you get started. Also, you'll want to get a GOOD tube bender.
