As a result of seeing, Reading and being fascinated By Carleton Ball book, I fall in love
with the waxy glazes. I had one before but never used it correctly.
I tested a glaze was posted y John Post in 19997:

The result:
The glaze looks to me like the glazes (as they look in the book and the net of
Japanese tea bowls) some decorative pinholes not fully mature, but enough to make
it a wonderful glaze please see it in:
