looking at pics from Rdeckard and others, I've decided to go with the camera case-foam padded style carrier for my chips...

I have 10 chipco 25X4 chip boxes and 5 setups (2 decks each) of cards in double cases...can someone recommend a brand that is more heavy duty...I recall someone got a box that was reported flimsier than others...

Get a pelican case from Amazon if you want something that's nearly indestructable. Prices there are very good, among the best I've found.

if I may ask you guys another question, do you know what would be the smallest or most suitable size or model for 10-12 chip boxes and 5 setups of cards? would still like at least 5 cm (inch and a half) of foam surrounding the contents...

tastic,
Before you go out and spend $50+ on a Pelican, you may want to consider the TaskForce case at Lowe's for only $25. I went to Lowe's to check it out and discovered that it is much better constructed than the Husky and comes with "pick-and-pluck" foam, and so it has replaced the Husky as my main chip case. Check out these threads:

Task Force case <-- pretty cool pics of what others have done with it. Looking at these examples, you should be able to get all of your chips and most of your cards in. I can get 15 boxes and two set-ups in mine.

ASM Chip Storage <-- My comments on both cases, plus internal dimensions

Also, it has built-in latch locks (handy if you have kids or unscrupulous players around) which is less of a hassle than putting padlocks on a Pelican. Plus, if you still don't like it for your chips, it probably could work fairly well as a tool case.
