I have a metal lever switch from radio shack (bought in store, metal bin w/drawers). I added one to my Kinesis but didn't end up using it due to the placement not being great.
It looks exactly like this:
There is no gap between the lever and plunger at any angle. I can shake the thing and not feel any motion anywhere in the switch. You can bend the lever however you want to change the characteristics, you can see the guy did so in the image linked as well.
The switch honestly has a very nice feel to it when naked. Activation pressure at the end of the lever is substantially less than a matias clicky switch, yet still feels a little stiff for activation with an upswing of the finger, but that may just be due to my fingers having no practice with that motion. It also just felt...weird...with a key cap glued on it. Can't explain.
Probably goes without saying, but do not let any flowing glues anywhere near the thing. I tried using super glue to mount some of these, being extremely careful to keep the contact points away from any seams in the plastic, but somehow the glue always managed to prevent the switch from every switching again. Hot glue worked fine.
