Yes I DAGS but my particular problem was not covered.
I used Blue Macking tape to try and avoid getting glue squeeze out on the
surface of the wood. Due to circumstances i would up leaving the tape in
place for about two weeks and now have tape residue on the bare wood.
What do you suggest for removal of this residue that will not interfer with
the shellac finish I plan to use.
I have no idea if this would work, but reading another response that
suggested a rubber cement lift gave me this thought. I wonder if a crepe
eraser (like you'd use to remove residue from sanding belts & disks) would
be efffective?

The very first thing I'd try is ethyl alcohol.

To avoid liquifying the glue with solvent and then rubbing it into the wood,
first pick up the glue residue using a rubber cement lift or tape. The
adhesive on the tape will stick to the adhesive on the wood and lift it off.
Then, clean the area with xylol (excellent tape adhesive solvent), and then
a quick wipe wipe with naphtha for a final degreasing, and you should be
fine.
