How to rotate welded part on player's hand?

I want to rotate this part (it’s not a tool) that is welded to the player’s hand so that the needle of the syringe is pointing upwards.

Here is the code I am using:

local poisonClone = game.ServerStorage.Items["Poison Injector"].Poison.Handle:Clone();
poisonClone.Parent = workspace;
												
local currentPlayerRShoulderJoint = w["name"].Character["RightUpperArm"]["RightShoulder"];
local targetedPlayerRShoulderJoint = nil;

-- Move arm up 45 degrees
if currentPlayerRShoulderJoint then
currentPlayerRShoulderJoint.C0 = currentPlayerRShoulderJoint.C0 * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(45), 0, 0);
end

local weld = Instance.new("Weld", poisonClone);
weld.Part0 = poisonClone;
weld.Part1 = w["name"].Character["RightHand"]; -- Attach to the player's right hand
weld.C0 = poisonClone.CFrame;
weld.C1 = w["name"].Character["RightHand"].CFrame;

Have to tried taking the poison clone out of server storage and rotating it then putting it back into server storage?

Yep. That doesn’t work. No matter what rotation I rotate the object, it stays in the same position. :confused:

You need to adjust the CFrame of either weld.C0 or weld.C1.
You are just reading the CFrames of each Part and then welding the 2 items to each other.
