    I ended up giving it four coats of shellac and then sanded it down all the way. After wiping some acetone on it, I started brushing on clear gloss polyurethane. The second coat is curing right now and I'll give it a third before I go to bed. So far it looks reaaaaaaly pretty. I'll post pictures of the finished product in the next day or so. Thank you everyone for your tips and advice

    I realize this thread is really old, but I'm curious as to how these turned out for you. I'm about to make some buckeye scales myself.
