How do I reference humanoid from tool and parent tool to workspace on unequip

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I wanna reference humanoid from the tool that the script is in, and I also need the a way to be able to parent the script to workspace, without it being overwritten by the roblox default parent to backpack in the player

Visual example of what I need (When I press 1 on my keyboard its parented to workspace):

This is what I have so far:


local tool = script.Parent

local hum = script.Parent.Parent.Humanoid --humanoid isn't found because the tool is in serverstorage

local players = game:GetService("Players")


tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	tool.Parent = workspace -- Doesn't work because the tool gets automatically get parented to backpack which overwrites this
	tool.Handle.Position = hum.Position
	tool.Handle.Anchored = true
end)


tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	tool.Handle.Anchored = false
end)
#2 
local tool = script.Parent
local handle = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Handle")
local character
local humanoid

tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	if character then
		humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
	end
	local clone = tool:Clone()
	tool:Destroy()
	clone.Parent = workspace
	clone:WaitForChild("Handle").CFrame = humanoid.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 0, 10)
	handle.Anchored = true
end)


tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	character = tool.Parent
	handle.Anchored = false
end)
#3 
local players = game:GetService("Players")

local tool = script.Parent

local plr = tool.Parent.Parent
local chr,hrp= nil,nil

tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	tool.Handle.Position = hrp.CFrame*CFrame.new(0,5,-5).p
	task.wait() --must put wait to work
	tool.Parent = workspace 
	tool.Handle.Anchored = true
end)

tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	tool.Handle.Anchored = false
	chr = tool.Parent
	hrp = chr.HumanoidRootPart
end)
