Here it is with the first coat of shellac. I am hoping that 3 coats of shellac and 3 coats of Poly will be enough to cover up the ammonia smell. I learned that I need to work with taller logs if I am going to do full bodies. This one is only 19" tall. I have to keep the logs size small because I work on my balcony. Thanks again.
