How do you Instance an Already Existing Object?

I want to Instance an already existing part in the Workspace without needing to copy all of its properties. How would you be able to do this?

I already tried doing this,

		local Purple = Instance.new("Tool", game.Workspace)
		local Purple = game.Workspace.Purple

But this just creates a tool without any of Purple’s properties.

Have you tried:

local Purple = game.Workspace.Purple:Clone()
Purple.Parent = game.Workspace

You can use clone to get an already existing instance.
local Purple = game.Workspace:FindFirstChildOfClass(“BasePart”):Clone()
