Software
Microlathe allows you to draw a profile and then see what it will look like as a turned 3D object viewed from any angle. You can make changes to the profile and see their effects on the finished form.
It doesn't require installation (so it doesn't make any changes to your system), simply download it and save it to your hard drive, then unzip the zip file to a suitable folder. Double-click the Lathe.exe file to run it.
