As Ken said, Moray would be the better option to create objects using
the same methods as POVRay.
For creating lathes (and many other things), I suggest you Hamapatch
http://www.geocities.com/hamapatch/program/index.html
wich exports to POVRay too (though Moray also creates lathes, but
Hamapatch is more flexible).
Hope this helps.
