Next, I cut off the string I had used to stretch the hide. Then I found a piece of cardboard (it was off of the back of an old used up notebook) and cut one end of it to match the curvature of the ring and I inserted it under the flap on the backside of the head. This protected the head as I used a knife to cut the excess hide off.
Ta Da! Finished Uchiwa daiko head. My daughter calls them goat lollypops. Set it aside and let the hide dry.
