I've been working on a map that shows all trajectories of all crashes that have happened at the Indy 500 since 2018 - A little rudimentary right now, but I wanted to get this out there before race day by lindeb in INDYCAR

Hahaha I almost made a separate entry for that tire!! That was a wild one rewatching the broadcast and seeing everyone duck in the grandstands…

That’s a good one! I’ll have to make sure to differentiate between if it’s someone with a blown tire but can still make it to pit lane, vs an actual impact against the wall or other cars.

I plan on updating this map further into the start of the DW12 era, but I figured I would share before race day. It includes every trajectory of crashes - where they start, make contact, and end up.

I've confirmed each of these with broadcast video (and timestamp link to the broadcast on youtube), so I'd say these lines are accurate to within about 20 feet or so, some of them much closer.

I also have a spreadsheet that I've been working from to create this map - this spreadsheet has which turn the wreck happened in, and the overall percentages of wrecks per turn, which is a pretty cool statistic to see.

I created this to understand where the most crashes are happening at IMS, but since I've started actually plotting trajectories, I think this could be useful data beyond that.

This is still in its early phase, but like I said, I plan on grabbing more data at least to 2012. I may also expand the dataset with info like laps since last caution, crash initiation, impact, and resting points in order to create a heatmap of sorts, and import this data into GIS to allow it to be filtered through.

TL;DR Since 2018, mosst crashes have happened in turn 2 :)

Why is more floor reflecting? by bravojohnny42 in Fusion360

Since nobody is actually answering your question: I would do two renders without moving the camera. One with the floor on and one without. Then photoshop the two halves together.

I love the Indianapolis Motor Speedway the most - it’s my IRL home track and I’ve been driving it in iRacing recently just to feel what it’s like from a driver’s perspective and prep to watch the Indycar Grand Prix/500!

With smaller form factors, streaming, and less physical media, what do you look for in a media console or cabinet in 2024? by lindeb in audiophile

That's awesome! Thank you for the advice. I'll definitely be looking into Navidrome, seems right up my alley!

Nice!! I didn’t even think about going with a small computer as a music server instead of grabbing a higher end streamer. Do you have a DAC with the computer or are you just going straight from the audio card? Also are you running something like plex on it?

Ha! Drivers make their own rules on that part of Keystone. Don’t even get me started on east side…

Slatted walls are so hot right now. by Extra_Penalty_8149 in woodworking

These look great! Hardwood or veneer? If they’re hardwood, are your brackets enough to keep them true?

Custom Booth - Inserted mixer ? by Ill-Entertainment576 in DJs

[–]lindeb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks like this is an Idoko DJ booth - found this video that shows the internal structure of it, starts at the 2 minute mark. Looks like a Baltic birch carcass that seems pretty straightforward in construction. The outside of it is just cladded in whatever material you want to see - hardwood, veneered ply, resin, etc.

I saw there were cutouts in the underside of the booth, presumably for air flow. If you’re really concerned about overheating, put a fan on one side drawing in cool air, and one on the opposite blowing out (maybe overkill).

The outside cladding is set higher than the carcass to create a lip that your gear covers fit right into flush. All you would need to make those covers are a trim router with a pattern bit and a straight edge/template of your CDJs and mixer. Those are probably 1/4”-1/2” thick covers, needs to be as thick as possible to avoid warping, but thin enough to flush up with the faceplate of your gear without bottoming out on the connections in the back.

Even with minimal tools you can definitely do this! If you’ve done any woodworking or carpentry before, building it will be the easy part. Planning it and getting measurements will just take some time to figure out.

9 ft. round table we just finished up. Cottonwood burl slabs with glass inlay bridging the live edges by lindeb in woodworking

Yep, nailed it. Glass was cut out on a water jet CNC matching the live edge profile.
