Jackson - exactly! With the duster the "tennis racket" parented prop didn't work right with the "pencil grip", so after I finally got it rotated and repositioned so it would work I just resaved the prop, it was parented to the right hand the whole time (it gets sort of weird in rotations when it is parented, you might want to start with it unparented - to unparent a prop just open it with no figure and resave it, incidently) Hand poses are tough, incidently, all those little parts! I normally start out with the closest hand pose that I can find, and go from there. Oh, and I never understand what I'm doing myself, either, it happens when you get over 50!
