Hello biocommand here with a really doubt thats been bothering me long time ago, so I am trying to make a really cool sword with complex figures with Solid modeling and I want actually to work, bit I was wondering how do I make all parts stay together without anchoring them?
how do you weld a sword?

Use an auto-weld script: (Place this inside the model)
local weldTo = script.Parent.INSERTNAMEOFTHEMAINPART
local weldToCf = weldTo.CFrame:inverse()
local parts = {weldTo}
function Weld(parent)
for _,v in pairs(parent:GetChildren()) do
if (v:IsA("BasePart") and v ~= weldTo) then
local w = Instance.new("Weld")
w.Name = "SwordWeld"
w.Part0 = weldTo
w.Part1 = v
w.C0 = weldToCf
w.C1 = v.CFrame:inverse()
w.Parent = weldTo
table.insert(parts, v)
end
Weld(v)
end
end
Weld(script.Parent)
for _,v in pairs(parts) do
v.Anchored = false
end
script:Destroy()

Oh, and make sure all the parts are anchored. This script will automatically weld everything together and unanchor everything
function Weld(x,y) local W = Instance.new("Weld") W.Part0 = x W.Part1 = y local CJ = CFrame.new(x.Position) local C0 = x.CFrame:inverse()*CJ local C1 = y.CFrame:inverse()*CJ W.C0 = C0 W.C1 = C1 W.Parent = x end
function Get(A) if A.className == "Part" or A.className == "UnionOperation" then Weld(script.Parent.Handle, A) A.Anchored = false else local C = A:GetChildren() for i=1, #C do Get(C[i]) end end end
function Finale() Get(script.Parent) end
script.Parent.Equipped:connect(Finale) script.Parent.Unequipped:connect(Finale) Finale()
This script supports UnionOperations aswell AKA solid modeling.

Just use Solid modeling and make it 1 part. But if you don't want to do that look up Welds on the wiki.
