Default brazing materials

I want to try my hand at brazing and I will be making a tuber. I have the maap torch and all the other necessary hardware. last on the list is the brazing material. Everyone seems to recommend harris saftey silver and flux.

Is this the right kit? ^^^

Safety silver is the way to go. I have used it on all sorts of projects, not just RC crawler.

Hey fabulous the safety silv i use that i bought at my local welding supply is this http://www.harrisproductsgroup.com/c...loys.asp?id=30 . I just started but it works great. Most guys reccoment the 45% but the shop only had 56%. works fine for me. you should use the harris stay flux with it to. Dont know about the lincoln safety silv havent seen it mentioned on here before.
