If I were doing it, I'd look into buying some kind of metal case, or
metal briefcase, and some foam core.  Then, cut out holes in the foam
core that fit your cameras and lenses.  You can buy cases like this
for cameras (I've seen them, but don't recall the brand name), but
you'll probably end up spending a lot less money doing it yourself.
And your equipment will be custom fit into the case.

Anyplace worth going is worth going in Big Red, though!  :)
