Lost in Translation, H/H 1 vol 2 tone 3 way

[SLEEPER 86]

I think i am missing something here.
I'm trying to put a Custom Custom in the neck and a Pearly Gates in the bridge of my Warmoth strat. i checked out the schematic for 2 humbuckers 1 volume 2 tones in the wiring diagrams section and it shows a gibson style switch.
I checked out the 3 way switch translation and it shows the gibson switch having a ground. how do i wire this with a blade switch?
Thanks in advance for your replies!

Is the ground coming from the input jack? If so, just ground it on a pot.

*edit*

Forget what I just posted. I checked the diagram. I have a 3 way blade in my HH tele. I didn't ground the blade. Just wire it like diagram says so (I used the one you posted). Seymour won't steer you the wrong way.

The ground lug on the Switchcraft three-way toggle selector is for its chassis.

On a Fender, the switch chassis is grounded by physical contact with either the metal control plate (Telecaster) or the screening material on the rear of the scratchplate (Stratocaster).

thank's guys! this is a rear routed guitar, but i have the pickup cavity lined with copper tape. i'll just run a ground wire off one of the pots to the copper shielding.
that one had me scratching my head.
Thank's again!
