The pilot reported that during the third approach practicing touch-and-go landings, he felt and heard the propeller hit the ground and realized that he had forgotten to lower the landing gear. The airplane touched down on the runway, and skidded to a stop in about 600 feet substantially damaging the lower fuselage. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airframe or engine that would have precluded normal operation.
