Looks pretty good! The pork bellies I've gotten had the skin removed. I would think you could try to skin like cleaning a redfish and using a sharp knife. I wouls stick it in the freezer for about a half an hour to make it easier to cut.

I did mine in a large covered container and used some (very cleaned )pieces of PVC pipe to keep it out of the draining solution.

I leave the skin because I like eating the skin. It crisps up nicely and reminds me of country bacon I had as a kid.
