I've had a lot of success making platform boards cut to size to fit in a keyboard case, then using industrial strength velcro to attach tabletop gear to the boards.  With that arrangement, you can leave stuff attached to the boards where they'll be secure in the case (trust me, the industrial strength velcro will hold stuff tight) and even leave patch & MIDI cables connected between gear on the same board.  Set up is easy:  just pull out the boards, place them on keyboard stands, and attach whatever cabling you need to run between gear on different boards.  I paint the boards black so they look nicer, and typically I'll need to remove the rubber feet on gear so I have a nice flat surface to attach the velcro to.  In order to keep boards from knocking around in the case, I'll lay a 2" piece of foam, cut to same size as the board, over the top of the board inside the case.  You can get the foam from a fabric or a sporting goods store.
