Abstract
An electric fastener driving tool assembly can include a driver designed to drive a fastener into a workpiece. The driver can reciprocate along an axial driver path between an extended position and a home position. A home position sensor can be located laterally adjacent the axial driver path. The home position sensor can be located to sense the presence of the driver in the home position when a lateral distance between the driver and the sensor changes.
