{{ObjectPage|name=Part|The {{type|instance=Part}} object is a physical object. When it is in the {{type|instance=Workspace}}, it will move and interact with other {{type|instance=Part|Parts}}. It can have bonds formed with other {{type|instance=Part|Parts}}, so that the two {{type|instance=Part|Parts}} stay in the same relative position.

{{type|instance=Part|Parts}} are the basic building blocks of any Roblox place. Commonly known as "bricks", you'll see these the most often of any other objects as almost every place is built out of these. It is possible to stretch a {{type|instance=Part}} to very large sizes and use them for baseplates, or make them very small and use them to create cool looking {{type|instance=Tool|Tools}}.
The '''Part''' object is a physical object. It, when it is in the [[RBX.lua.Workspace (Service)|Workspace]], will move and interact with other '''parts'''. It can have bonds formed with other '''parts''', so that the two parts stay in the same relative position.
The {{type|instance=Part}} object can be edited using the various [[studio]] tools. It is available via either the [[insert]] menu, or the ''Object Insert menu''. It can also be created using the 'Instance.new()' function.

Using the Mesh objects, such as {{type|instance=SpecialMesh}}, {{type|instance=BlockMesh}}, or {{type|instance=CylinderMesh}} objects you can change the shape of them. Using the Decal objects, including the {{type|instance=Decal}} or {{type|instance=Texture}} objects, you can place pictures on top of the bricks. {{type|instance=Sparkles}} will appear while parented under the brick.

There are many scripting opportunities using the {{type|instance=Part}} object. Many of the other scripting objects, such as {{type|instance=BodyForce}} objects operate inside of a {{type|instance=Part}} or other physics based objects. Editing the {{type|instance=Part}}'s properties through a script can result in a lot of fun opportunities.}}

Returns a clone of the object and its children, unless its Archivable property is false. The clone will have the same properties as the original object and the same descendants (except those with an Archivable property set to false). The clone's Parent will be nil.
Returns the first child found with a name of name. Returns nil if no such child exists. If the optional recursive argument is true, will recursively descend the hierarchy while searching rather than only searching the immediate object.
The name of the object, which is often used to identify it in the context of its parent. Note that names are not unique identifiers; multiple children of an object may share the same name. In a script where you want to access an object using a name, for example, game.Workspace["Brick"], the first object found with that name is that object. This "first object" can be found in the Explorer menu.Names are great for showing a very brief title or summary of an object.
The hierarchical parent of the object. When no scripts hold references to an object, it will still be maintained as long as it's parent is set to an object which does have references to it, either by other objects or scripts. The toplevel DataModel object (the one referred to as the "game" by scripts) has no parent, but always has a reference held to it by the game engine, and exists for the duration of a session.
A unique string per type of Instance. Should only be used as a unique identifier, as it does not reveal any information about nature of the type hierarchy the type is in. For this use, see IsA.
Fired when another part comes in contact with another object. This event only sends data to the client notifying it that two parts have collided, whereas Touched sends data to the server.
