I’ve done something similar for a client. I found it easiest to create my custom post types as part of a plugin and network activate it. Without reinventing the wheel, I used a plugin from WPMU Dev to show those posts on the main site. If creating the custom post type isn’t your forte, WPMU Dev has a plugin that will help you with creating them.
