What setup and rod would you use for piano wire? Just got a scx10 chassis and would like to do bumpers and side rails. Thanks for the help!!! |

Same as any other metal. Silver solder works good. I have found that some of it has more oil residue from quenching then others, so make sure you clean/abrade it well for no problems.

I would use cold rolled steel over Piano wire ..Piano wire is very tough to bend ...cold rolled steel is plenty strong for bumpers...

why not just use brake line tubing, easy to bend and brazes up real nice.I just made me a bumber for my scx using brake line , took me a couple hours and its extremely strong.
