I don't think this would work anyway. The reason being is the pivot point is to far from where it needs to be. As it is designed right now it would just be trying to spread the switch straight apart. What you need to be doing is roll the tabs away from lower half. The pivot needs to be right where the tool enters the top half of the switch.
Yeah, I'm thinking of that too. Please do note though it is just an initial design and there is room for improvement. The idea is the same with The_Beast switch tool but have a connector just like in nail clipper. I don't have Beast's switch tool currently so I was just basing my measurements on assumptions. I would like to get a prototype but can't source it locally.
I think the following could be adjusted:
1. shorter wing - to make the tool closer to each other
2. shorter length from pivot point
I read before you have cnc/plate cutter? Sorry I am not sure. How much would you charge for a prototype?
I'll tinker with the design and enhance it a bit more.
