How would I rotate a tool by 90 degrees in x axis?

The problem Ian, is that you’re changing the grip and then parenting it to the workspace, the orientation in the workspace is different from the orientation of the grip. What is this tool for? Why do you want to turn it, I’m assuming you want to rotate it while you’re holding it, but if not you need to rotate the actual workspace orientation, you can do this using :PivotTo(). I’m pretty sure tool inherits from model, so it would look like this:

broom:SetPivot(broom:GetPivot() * CFrame.Angles(math.pi * -0.5, 0, 0))

SetPivot is not a valid member of Tool “Workspace.Broom” - Server - Script:16

Heh, I think I meant “PivotTo()”, I do this too much.

It’s doing it again as if it wasn’t welded even though it is, no idea why this is happening

Are you trying to use attachments for the weld constraint?

No, I am not trying to use attachments.
