A follow-up to the last post is that 
you can of course build a portable
system case without using SixPacs.

My first was an old US Army box from
a surplus store.  It was 18" x18" and 
was great for two rows of (8) modules
each, however because it was made
3/4 inch plywood, and had thick 
particle board slabs inside to bolt
the modules to - it weighed a ton!

No fun to lug it around everywhere.

The price was right though, I think 
I only paid ten-dollars for the whole
case!  (shown to my right).

Pretty indestructable!
(that's when I switched to lighter
structural almuminum, and if using 
SixPacs internally in a case, then 
not only does the plywood for the 
case suudenly shrink in weight and 
thickness, (1//4 inch or 3/8 instead 
of 3/4 inch) but also the case builders
don't need to be rocket scientists to 
make everything fit perfectly, (the 
precision (and most of the structural
strength is already built into the 
SixPacs)).

Hope this helps ya'
