Man, i love WL! And I have pulled out a "small" pile of gear from my basement "time capsule" to be able to record mixes.
I decided to consolidate all the gear i use into one case, with custom inserts to keep it all from rattling around, to protect it, keep it accessible, and keep it picked up. It always looks messy, and i don't currently have a space where I can leave this stuff set up, no matter how tidy it is. Now I can easily clean up the entire kit, and quickly re-assemble in any available space.
I took pictures of my process, which is basically to half fill a suit case with Great Stuff expanding foam, wrap the gear in plastic bags, cover the foam in cloth, and push the objects into it and let cure. If you try this get plenty of foam, I used two small cans and wish i had more.
My gear is: Old behring U-200 USB audio, old Mackie portablel mixer (i like the pre-amps), line 6 POD, morley Tel-Ray power wah boost, and a bunch of cables, headphones, a mic, desk stand, harmonicas, etc. (I only use the "input" side of the U-200, and run the headphone out of my laptop back to the mixer, and monitor everything on headphones through the mixer. Since I am monitoring "live" i can adjust for latency in the background) I don't always use everything, but it is handy to have it all available and in one place.
Most of my gear:
