Technically you could make them work. You could probably machine some mounts out with it. You'll have some trouble figuring out the Z switch with those particular switches without being in the way of other things. We have a pretty creative way of mounting the Z switch that relies on a long lever arm. I'd encourage you to just let us send you a PayPal invoice for our homing switch kit. It's only $30 and will save you a ton of time on trying to hack in a solution. Plus, testing indicates that our switches are very very repeatable. I can't speak for those particular switches that you linked, but my experience has been that those 3D printer end stop style switches are not all that repeatable. That's less important in a 3D printer application but more important in a CNC router application where you are trying to start work on a clamping jig or home between tool changes, etc.

I gotta agree with Derek. When it comes to things like homing switches, go with what you know works. Unless you have time to burn. Then in that case, have it. Lol. My concern with those particular switches is the exposed boards. Lots of opportunity for shorts and false triggers.
