Suggest looking in/at IKEA for display cases... my dad is a rabid collector
of John Deere miniatures, must have 8 to 10 of their cases.  Very attractive
and useful for such a need (will help keep those OMs dust free).

I too carry a very small amount at any given time. Right now, my equipment
is display on a bookshelf, but dust is a problem, so I'll go the doors route
soon.  I find myself gravitating to 'favorite' equipment, but try to vary it
a bit.  I have a small bag/backpack (Tamrac 615) and a medium over the
shoulder (Tamrac 608), both of which I like and the decision depends on the
shoot.  Two bodies, several lens = 608,  One body and a few lenses = 615
backpack)

I own the huge Tamrac 614, but rarely use it.  Loaded, I can barely carry
it!  It's good for hiding all the extra equipment on the rare occasions that
my wife ventures into my home office though.
