How to use screw lenses on a Minolta Maxxum


I have a Yashica TL Electro camera that uses the old M42 lenses and I also have a Minolta Maxxum 3 AF camera , is there any way to use the M42 lenses in the Maxxum system ??? any help will be appreciated as I do have good lenses for the Yashica and would love to use them on the Minolta.

  Look on eBay under Lenses/Mounts and Adapters and see if there is a screw-to-Maxxum adapter. If the adapter exists, it's like to be there somewhere.
Of course, we're talikng manual focus and stop-down metering (see previous thread this week on stop-down).
