  I've not tried this, but David (? maybe Vincent)
Gingery has written a 
 book on DIY injection moulding. Although the machine descibed will only 
 do small parts (<10g or so), it would seem it could do switch levers, 
 etc. I think scaling it up would be difficult, as the mould is not 
 heated, so the plastic would most likely solidify before the mould was 
 filled. 
  It's Vince Gingery. I have this book.

  Dave Gingery did the line of foundry books and the
7 book set "Build Your Own Metalworking Shop from Scrap".
(Makes me feel like a kid again).

 All of it is at Lindsay Books

 every book you need to rebuild the world
 after the apocalypse.
