Aperture control using G lenses on Film cameras. Possible?

Hi there everyone.

I just added a Nikon FM camera to my camera bag 2 weeks ago. Amazing little camera. Now, what I'd like to do is use some of my G lenses on this camera, like my 85 f/1.4G, but since it doesn't have an aperture rig, I'm pretty much stuck using the lens at f16, which I don't want.

So, first question - is there any way to use this lens on the Nikon FM and have Aperture control?

Now, I just noticed that there's a Kipon adapter that allows you to use Nikon G lenses on the Fuji XPro-1, and the adapter has an aperture ring. Is there a chance that there's a similar adapter that'll allow me to have aperture control on the Nikon FM?

Thanks guys!
