How do I fix this issue (I believe it's a welding issue)?

I'm trying to make it so when you click on a GUI thing a hat comes on. When I do this the pin badge on the hat goes miles away from the head where the main hat is. I will show you my script and an image to help you picture this.

01game.ReplicatedStorage.hat.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,name)
02    local d = game.Workspace[player.Name]:GetChildren() -- start of hat remover
03    for i=1, #d do
04        if (d[i].className == "Accessory") then
05            d[i]:remove() 
06        end
07    end
08    local g = game.ServerStorage.Hats[name].Face:Clone()
09    g.Parent = game.Workspace[player.Name].Head
10    local C = g:GetChildren()
11    for i=1, #C do
12            if C[i].className == "Part" or C[i].className == "UnionOperation" or C[i].className == "MeshPart" then
13                local W = Instance.new("Weld")
14                W.Part0 = g.Middle
15                W.Part1 = C[i]
16                local CJ = CFrame.new(g.Middle.Position)
17                local C0 = g.Middle.CFrame:inverse()*CJ
18                local C1 = C[i].CFrame:inverse()*CJ
19                W.C0 = C0
20                W.C1 = C1
21                W.Parent = g.Middle
22                g.Middle.Transparency = 1
23                C[i].Parent = g
24            end
25                local Y = Instance.new("Weld")
26                Y.Part0 = game.Workspace[player.Name].Head
27                Y.Part1 = g.Middle
28                Y.C0 = CFrame.new(0, 0, 0)
29                Y.Parent = Y.Part0
30        local h = g:GetChildren()
31        for i = 1, # h do
32            h[i].Anchored = false
33            h[i].CanCollide = false
34        end
35        end
36end)

any errors in output? proqrammed 285 — 5y

Is it just one part with a mesh or is it multiple parts as a model? killerbrenden 1537 — 5y

I think I have a solution. I'll write it as an answer, you test it, tell me if it works. killerbrenden 1537 — 5y

Ok orcazate 170 — 5y

Can't you use Humanoid:AddAccessory to add the hat? I can't tell what you're trying to achieve. y3_th 176 — 5y

Im trying to put the hat on like it is on the workspace orcazate 170 — 5y

Instead of using welds, have you considered using WeldConstraints? Those are much cleaner and easier to work with. Just set the hat's CFrame to the head's CFrame, and then create a WeldConstraint connecting the two parts together. y3_th 176 — 5y

the problem is the bit that comes off has more than 1 part orcazate 170 — 5y

The script that I made a while back was outdated. killerbrenden 1537 — 5y

How do I fix this issue (I believe it's a welding issue)?
