Default What wire to hook up crossover components to each other?

Hi, I know this is a silly question, but can anyone tell me where to find solid-core wire (preferably OFC or aluminum or something taht won't rust/oxidize) to hook up coils/caps/etc. in a crossover? Thanks!

look for "bus wire" if the solid core copper at the hardware store does not tickle your fancy.

I just grab house wire and strip it. Seems I always have some of it around. Useful for color codes if you only strip the ends.
