What do i need to accomplish this?

I wanted to make a shaft of 3 - 4" go up and down and rotate sometimes. It has to be very slow and light weight. What could I get to put it together?

Anyone ???

You could probably put a dc motor on top of a linear actuator?

Here are some references that you could use if you’ve never worked with electric motors:
