No, functionally speaking, but yes they will attach. The M6 requires the
three pronged wheelie thing to align the film properly and the M3 requires
the nub to hold the take-up spool in place. If you left the M3's spool out
you could fit the M6 baseplate but it obviously would not work. With a
little machining the various whatevers can be fitted. Now I have a basic
question. Why?
