Well for that one you'd want player 2 to be the wife/GF

Hmmm, I'm getting more and more confused as to what I should do...
I thought maybe 3 people would play more often than 4 players, so I moved player 3 to the player 2 side and player 4 to the player 1 side...I fixed the player buttons to show this...
I like the straight design, because it makes games like Karate Champ easy to set up, but it doesn't leave a lot of room for players to be comfortable...
I'd also have tons of room left near the top of the CP...

Now you know you are a full blown BYOAC'er.  I went through the same thing.  I built a nice 4p panel, but I'm building multiple panels now as that seems to be the best way to get authentic gameplay.

Only have a 2player cab myself so I can't comment on the stick angle debate.  I agree with Oliver though on the trackball.  mine is as close as I could sandwich it to the front of the cab (because of all the people who said you'd smash your fingers playing golden tee, which I don't necessarily agree with either, I've NEVER felt the need to follow through on a trackball swing with a body lunge ;)) and I have had no issues whatsoever
Sinner:
Is it better to have the CP slope towards the front, or is it OK to have it as a flat box?
I have limited skill, and I've never done this kind of stuff before.  I only have a few tools, and I'm not sure if I could actually build this on an angle without buying more.
I currently own...
Jigsaw
Circular saw
Router (plunge and fixed base)

I was thinking of buying a mitre box and a hand saw for cutting the angled pieces on the CP box, but I'm not sure how to slope the box.  Good idea to use a mitre box?

Making the whole thing slope towards the front poses another problem...
