I saw this question several times and I still don't really know the answer
if I make an animation in roblox animation editor am I able to weld the tool to the hand then? btw should I weld a tool's handle or weld something else that's not a part of a tool
also is there any other way to animate a tool?

Yes, you can weld the hand to the tool and try it from there. If it dont move with it then try placing the tool inside the arm/hand then try again. As for the tool animating, i would need more details on what you need exactly
