Woodworker's spinner (5)

I believe the answer is:

lathe

(Other definitions for lathe that I've seen before include "craftsman's machine" , "Machine for turning and shaping wood etc" , "Revolver" , "Turning implement" , "Machine tool for shaping metal or wood" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
