I based my design on Lusids....Here are a couple of pics on how I modified the CP design for my purposes... (BTW: I hated the hinge idea. My kids were always getting in there and messing things up. I went with real CP clamps...)

I made a two player Lusid cab and the first thing that come to mind when you mention everything you want on your cp is the standard Lusid cp is too small.  You'll need to extend the sides out and possibly make it deeper.  It shouldn't be too hard to do and if done right could look good. 

Heres my layout

Aren't there any body here who build 4 player lusid cab?

I have already build the lusid cab and cut out the 4 slot coin door and I also have the coin door on hand.

Well I will have to make it work with what I have now...

Damn near every noob on this site at one time or another either built or thought about building a 4-player LuSiD cab.
