    What is really interesting is that normally a lot of those parts are Aluminum (RRS tripod heads, RRS Arco plates, ect) screws/bolts should be stainless. You really need to work at it to get those to corrode (can happen, done it, but it takes work).
     
    @BurtG you should delete your dup post on this subject.

    Anyway, I was looking at my Anvil and it looks to have a different design than yours.

    Mine is three pieces. Two magnetic top/bottom supports that sandwich a non-magnetic handle.

    I assume the supports are steel (magnetic stainless, perhaps) and the handle would be aluminum.
