Abstract: A hand held tool (10) comprises a handle (14), a contact member (16), and an electric motor (12). The contact member has a contact surface portion 17 that lies in the first plane. The motor (12) has a stator (23) and an armature (19) where the armature (19) is able to move with non-rotary translational motion in a second plane relative to the stator (23), the second plane being parallel to the first plane. One of the stator (23) and the armature (19) is attached to the handle (14), while the other is attached to the contact member (16). Therefore, relative motion of the stator (23) and armature (19) is translated to relative motion between the handle (14) and the contact member (16). A resilient coupling (18) is coupled between the handle 14 and the contact member (16) and applies a bias against the relative motion between the handle (14) and contact member (16).
