a bit more done on the semi mg-42

finally got a bit more done on the 42 project

Squared up the rear of the barrel shroud.

Also carefully cut the torched barrel bushing right at the join weld

This allowed me to knock the remainder out without grinding the snot out of it

You can see the rear of the torched bushing sitting in the shroud after being tapped out.

Soon the big order will go in for the rest of the parts I need then we will see some progress.
