I bought a pelican case as a Christmas gift for someone from ebay.
The guy that I got the case and foam from was very friendly and helpful and also located in Cleveland.

Here is a list of what he has for sale right now.  I also ordered pick and pluck foam from him seperately at a reasonable price..
I think $3 or so...

If you emailed him, I would bet that he would be more than helpful.

Good Luck

Dustin:

Pull out the entire section of foam where your individual mics are going to go. After that section has been completely removed, it is easy to cut that foam section with a serated knife to the depth you want. After cutting, place the foam back in. Wah La...

yeah, i found that's the easiest way too

shoot... i can't get the link to work... go here and then in the search type in foam... you will get 28 results or so...

joann fabrics usually has a coupon too, so don't buy anything without a coupon.

I personally like using pipe insulation that only costs $2 for an 8' length.

I store my CMC6s in those.  For running in the field, I have a smaller leather guitar case I have trimmed that is pretty easy to use with KC5 cables, etc.  I have not tried to drill the caddy for use with an active setup, though I'm sure one could. Although it'd be safest, I think my leather case is fine for what I'm doing, since my bag is padded and tightly packed itself.  It's also much lower profile.
