Spun tiny plate without fidgeting? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

patiently

'without fidgeting?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'spun tiny plate' is the wordplay.
'spun' is an anagram indicator.
'tiny'+'plate'='tinyplate'
'tinyplate' is an anagram of 'PATIENTLY'.

(Other definitions for patiently that I've seen before include "without complaint" , "With unhurried calmness" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
