My script displays a sword, but the sword isnt rotated right, fixes?

Ok so I'm making a custom sword system and have made it so the weapon the player has displays on the side of their charater, the only problem is, if they are facting any direction, other than that at which they are spawned in, the sword isnt rotated correctly.

I know I'm missing some code or need to edit another bit of code, but am unsure as to what. Any help?

My current code is this:

while wait() do
    if not script.Parent:FindFirstChild("SwordDisplay") then
        local Plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(script.Parent)

        if not script.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool") then
            local SG = Plr:WaitForChild("StarterGear")
            local Foundtool = SG:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool")

            if Foundtool then
                local Handle = Foundtool.Handle

                local Clone = Handle:Clone()
                local NewWeild = Instance.new("Weld", Clone)
                NewWeild.Part0 = script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart
                NewWeild.Part1 = Clone
                Clone.Parent = script.Parent
                Clone.Name = "SwordDisplay"
                Clone.Orientation = Vector3.new(-17.5, 180, 0)
                Clone.Position = (script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position + (script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.RightVector + script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector) * -1.05) - Vector3.new(0,1.5,0)
            end
        end
    end
end

This is a never mind, Turns out I just had to edit the orientation to be the humanoidrootparts orientation at the y level + 180

revised code if anyone wishes to use it:

while wait() do
    if not script.Parent:FindFirstChild("SwordDisplay") then
        local Plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(script.Parent)

        if not script.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool") then
            local SG = Plr:WaitForChild("StarterGear")
            local Foundtool = SG:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool")

            if Foundtool then
                local Handle = Foundtool.Handle

                local Clone = Handle:Clone()
                local NewWeild = Instance.new("Weld", Clone)
                NewWeild.Part0 = script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart
                NewWeild.Part1 = Clone
                Clone.Parent = script.Parent
                Clone.Name = "SwordDisplay"
                Clone.Orientation = Vector3.new(-17.5, script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Orientation.Y + 180, 0)
                Clone.Position = (script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position + (script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.RightVector + script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector) * -1.05) - Vector3.new(0,1.5,0)
            end
        end
    end
end

Thats not what i meant, I've got that anyway. What i was looking for is part rotation as the display is the handle of the weapon MrCatDoggo 213 — 4y
