Are you going with the steel bottom plate with the mirror finish and the heavy steel bar?

Will there be an option with lighter anodized aluminum bottom plate and feet like these http://www.kbdmod.co.kr/product/detail.html?product_no=26&cate_no=12&display_group=1 ?

Is it possible to have acrylic switch plates instead of aluminum ones?

It would be like LZ-GH with heavy bar, probably mirror finish, and aluminum plate. I don't like acrylic plates because if it breaks then you are screwed.

Since this plate seems to be both WinKey and WKL compatible, would the following bottom row layout work?

I could do that for you.

acrylic plate is nice until it breaks and you realize you now no longer have a functioning plate for your $300-400 keyboard and your options to replace it are slim to none in addition to being really expensive. So in short no it will not have an acrylic plate, it will be exactly like LZ-GH just in the 75% layout. I think the previous LZ-MX used the same case design as the LZ-GH so this is sort of a remake of that except probably with the mirror finish on the bottom, and possibly a high end sticker to apply not unlike the LZ-SE. Those are details I need to work out still.

1 x case (top, bottom, Foot bar)
Excuse me, but why does there need to be both a top and a bottom? If I were you I would construct it like a Poker, with only one piece + foot bar.
I would think that what you are after is to sandwich the plate between top and bottom, but ... would that really make a difference to having a plate screwed firmly to the bottom?

Waiting to see if the LZ-MX GH could be done in the same case style as the LZ-FE. It may be awhile.

If there is a 50 orders limit like LZ-FE then I'd rather not see it done that way...

I sent you a PM, Deaniel. Not sure whether you got a chance to read it.

Well, a little late to the party, but I'd definitely be interested in a WKL blue model.
However, as I've never even done anything other than swap in/out keycaps, I fear I would need some sort of assembly.

You might also checkout the Keycool 84 or the ChocMini, i like those layouts a little more because the function keys are directly above the number keys. But yes, in regards to Korean customs, there are not many. The GON Mx Mini, the LZ-MX and maybe a couple more floating around.

The case design is not settled yet. Daniel referred to the new LZ-MX kit as LZ-MX FE, and the only clue of what that could look like is a classifieds post by LifeZ, which is quoted below. Daniel also mentioned in a PM that "It is in very early planing stages". So, who knows.

By the way, are there any 75% keycap sets? I know there's Tsangan, but the profile on Insert/Delete/PageUp/Down will be wrong. Maybe some in Korea?
