At one time while I was an assistant, I worked with a commercial photog from
Denver. Boeing flew him up here, and I picked him up at the airport. He came
out with 4 Halliburton cases and 3 Lightware cases. All of 'em looked like
they had been beaten with a baseball bat and then re-painted. He also had a
stencil made and then painted the following on each case:
Hiram & Martin Mortuary Supply Co.
He said, for 20 years, NO ONE had ever bothered his stuff.

i'd suggest a halliburton case, or an ordinary lunchbox, spraypainted silver
