Lathe object

The Lathe object (also known as the screw object) rotates a spline around the Y-axis of the Lathe object so that you can create an elaborate wine glass from a simple profile, for example. The rotation takes place as soon as you 'drop' the spline into the Lathe object. As a rule, the profile spline should be in the XY plane.

In the following scene, all objects were created from Lathe objects.
