Sparkfun has a some helpful tips for casing up electronics projects – good tips for board and switch mounting specifically.
One thing to keep in mind during all of this: as in all things, there will be a lot of back and forth when you find a box that you think might work, then something else interferes (ie, the height of your power jack).
