The shaft is configured to move along a longitudinal axis of the tool with respect to the first housing and the second housing. Furthermore, the tool includes an anvil coupled to the second housing, a biasing device coupled to the shaft and to the anvil, and a tip coupled to the anvil. The anvil is configured to be selectively contacted by the shaft and to transmit a force received from the shaft to the tip.
