Reason I ask is about once every two weeks I get an email or pm from a new machinist in India that stumbled something about a machine I've posted about in the past here on PM and asks bluntly if I could email them a copy of that or that manual or electrical schematic for that machine !
I could sort of see it, if they prefaced the statement with something like "Hello, you don't know me from Budda, and I know this is asking alot from a stranger, but could you by any chance..."
But instead it's always something like "I see you have a Miyano XXX, I'm having trouble with mine...can you email me the electrical schematics ?" And that's it. And of course they have zero prior history on PM...just that one private message. Or maybe they are pretty smart and just assume we Americans are super friendly fools ready to help out any stranger from anywhere no matter how much PITA it is ? Any thoughts from non insane Indians on this ?
