Building an aquarium hood

I'm running short on practical ideas, so I'm looking for a little bit of input.

I'd like to build a top for my 90g that will contain a ton of lighting. At least 4, and perhaps 6 flourescent tubes with a ventilation fan and a concave metal reflector to maximize light efficiency. The fan is no problem, and the general structure is easy for me to conceptualize. I'm just trying to figure out how to configure a way to gain access to the tank.

Maybe a section of the reflector will have to be removed so if I create a hinged "door" that swings upwards, I'll be able to get my hands in there. That still doesn't seem like a lot of room. Any ideas?
