    two permanent magnets (14, 16) fixedly positioned at opposing ends (13, 15) of the housing; and

    at least one permanent magnet (18) positioned in the housing for movement toward and away from each end magnet in a reciprocal oscillating motion, wherein the polarities of the moving magnet oppose the polarities of the fixed magnets, wherein a workpiece assembly (32) is attachable to the moving magnet, and extends out through one of the fixed magnets, for linear movement thereof, in response to a driving action for the motor.
