A control system for use in conjunction with a primary power system and operable to control a pneumatically powered hand-held tool broadly comprises an air delivery assembly operable to communicate with a pressurized air source; a control assembly including an exhaust line from the primary power system and to the control assembly, a spool valve in fluid communication with the supply line and the exhaust line, and a control line in fluid communication with the spool valve and the hand-held tool; a tool assembly comprising the hand-held tool for performing delicate hand working operations; and a housing for at least partial storage of the air delivery assembly and the control assembly. The primary power system and the control system operate in conjunction with each other to both power and precisely control a pneumatically powered hand-held tool.

1. A power tool system comprising: a hand-held power tool for powering of a hammer tool, the power tool including— a first segment for receipt of a user's hand and including a first hollowed chamber,a second segment including a second hollowed chamber fluidly isolated from the first hollowed chamber
1. A power tool system comprising: a hand-held power tool for powering of a hammer tool, the power tool including— a first segment for receipt of a user's hand and including a first hollowed chamber,a second segment including a second hollowed chamber fluidly isolated from the first hollowed chamber, anda piston housed within the second hollowed chamber and operable to drive the hammer tool;a control line in fluid communication with a control system and the first hollowed chamber and operable to supply pressurized air to the first hollowed chamber;a control point fluidly connected to the first hollowed chamber for selective expulsion of the pressurized air supplied by the control system; anda supply line extending from a pressurized air source and to the second hollowed chamber and operable to drive the piston,wherein the control point comprises an orifice formed in the first segment of the power tool and fluidly connected with the first chamber of the power tool,wherein the power tool further includes— a touch pad at least partially overlaying the first segment of the tool, anda resilient flapper overlaying the orifice,wherein at least a portion of the resilient flapper is raised from the touch pad,wherein depression of the flapper directly affects an amount of air exhausted from the orifice. 2. The power tool system of claim 1, wherein the supply line is fluidly isolated from the control line. 3. The power tool system of claim 1, wherein the touch pad includes a pattern of gripping protrusions. 4. The power tool system of claim 1, wherein the resilient flapper is cut from the touch pad. 5. The power tool system of claim 1, wherein the touch pad and the resilient flapper are formed of rubber or neoprene. 6. The power tool system of claim 1, wherein an underside of the resilient flapper includes at least one lifting protrusion that raises the flapper away from the orifice, such that the flapper does not completely close off the orifice unless the flapper is depressed by the user. 7. A power tool system comprising: a hand-held power tool for powering of a hammer tool, the power tool including— a first segment for receipt of a user's hand and including a first hollowed chamber,a second segment including a second hollowed chamber fluidly isolated from the first hollowed chamber, anda piston housed within the second hollowed chamber and operable to drive the hammer tool;a control line in fluid communication with a control system and the first hollowed chamber and operable to supply pressurized air to the first hollowed chamber;a control point fluidly connected to the first hollowed chamber for selective expulsion of the pressurized air supplied by the control system; anda supply line extending from a pressurized air source and to the second hollowed chamber and operable to drive the piston,wherein the control point comprises an orifice formed in the first segment of the power tool and fluidly connected with the first chamber of the power tool,wherein the power tool further includes a resilient flapper overlaying the orifice, wherein depression of the flapper directly affects an amount of air exhausted from the orifice,wherein an underside of the resilient flapper includes at least one lifting protrusion that raises the flapper away from the orifice, such that the flapper does not completely close off the orifice unless the flapper is depressed by the user. 8. The power tool system of claim 7, wherein the supply line is fluidly isolated from the control line. 9. The power tool system of claim 7, wherein the first segment of the tool is at least partially overlaid with a touch pad, and at least a portion of the resilient flapper is raised from the touch pad. 10. The power tool system of claim 9, wherein the touch pad includes a pattern of gripping protrusions. 11. The power tool system of claim 9, wherein the resilient flapper is cut from the touch pad. 12. The power tool system of claim 9, wherein the touch pad and the resilient flapper are formed of rubber or neoprene.
