looks simple and clean. I really like it ;)

May I ask how exactly you handled tha rawhide? As far as I worked with it (maybe.... one or two times?) it shortend massivly in bth directions and I was unable to fortell the final measurement which made the whole thing really... let´s say I wasn´t happy with it ^^.
