Do you think that the revolver - where the objectives screw - could be pillaged and mounted on the nose of another brand?
You mean Nf's 5-position revolver? It will fit later Microval stands and some LOMO stands (but for them it will need some modification), can't say anything about others.

Thanks for your replies. Adapting the revolver, that was not such a great idea.
Just to wrap up, here the drawing of the RMS-M19 flanged adapter from RafCamera, hope they don't mind (free advertising... ). What is important is the 20.5mm, 2mm high bore, that centers the M19 mount. The "flangeless" adapter (a ring with M19 inside and RMS outside) may be hit or miss, as this 20.5 mm could hit the RMS female screw.
This adapter adds 7mm to parfocal length to the objectives. Optically should be ok - they're infinite. Some issues may arise with the stage focusing - as will need to be 7mm more down, from 45mm parfocal objectives.
