A short dictionary entry on the "spinner" from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary. It defines the term as a general name for a spinning machine and, more specifically, a drawing and twisting device, illustrated by a line drawing (Fig. 5401) showing rollers, a twisting device, a spindle or guide mechanism, and a pulley with a weighted lever. It cross-references the entries on spinning, spinning-head and drawing-head.
