Can someone give me a hand on this?

Oh, I see what you want to do! but i still don't think it would work at all (if it does it would look < poor)

If you attach the submesh to the bone, then you might run into problems, because the animation files won't have the submesh... Also, the submesh won't be binded to the rest of the skin, so when he moves his leg, the chain won't curve around his leg (basically it won't be animated at all)

The Desk is different because it has no animation files
