I used to have the metalurgical datasheets on here from lodge and Im not sure if they used phosphorus or not, but I know that they did use NiMg3 in it tho, which would eliminate any brittleness anyhow, so maybe they did and it is just that the two is balancing out the properties/downsides of each?

Yes, Lodge uses Phos in there alloy, about .26%. I was told if it was higher that it makes the Iron even less fluid than no Phos. I found some Phos online but, as with all my projects, I'm kind of stuck in no progress on anything. They had used NiMg3 but I don't think they use it anymore.
