This video will show you how to make a tool in Roblox.
I'm going to make a cardboard box tool for this video.
First, design your tool by inserting parts
and manipulating them with the select,
move, scale, and rotate tools.
You can also add color and material
in the properties panel.
Once you've created your parts,
insert one more and name it Handle
with a capital H.
Using the scale tool,
set the size of the handle to be small
and set the transparency to 1.
This part will determine where the player holds the tool.
Drag it to the bottom of the box
or wherever you want the player to hold the tool
if you are creating a different tool.
Click on the plus icon next to the workspace
and insert a tool.
Select all of your parts which you just created
and drag them inside your tool.
Then make sure the anchored property is unchecked.
We now need to weld all of the parts
so that the box does not fall apart when equipped.
Click the plus icon on the handle
and insert a WeldConstraint.
Set the Part0 property to the handle.
Set the Part1 property to one of the other parts.
Repeat this until you've set up WeldConstraints
which connect the handle to every other part.
Make sure Part0 is the handle on every weld.
Now ensure that your tool is the correct size
relative to a Roblox character.
You can do this by inserting an NPC
via the plugins Rig Builder menu
or by inserting an NPC from the toolbox.
Drag the tool into the starter pack
and then click the play button.
Click the tool in the toolbar or press 1 to equip it.
