Will any brass work or is there a specific alloy or brand I should be after??
I just use generic low fuming brass rod. Get a couple diameters: 1/16" for lugs, 3/32" for filling large voids like stay ends.

For silver you want cadmium-free rod (unless you have a respirator or a death wish); I like Harris "Safety-Silv" 56% silver rod.
