Just to clarify, although you use the word "tangents" here, I think you
actually mean "keys," right?
A possible simple explanation: as you play, is the hg flat on your lap, or is
it hanging down away from you slightly? It should be angled down away from you,
so gravity helps the keys back down. Your knees should be lower than your hips.
The other possible explanation is that your hg was made in a climate that is
drier than your climate, so in your climate, the wood has swelled and is
sticking. A few of my keys had this problem, but only in summer when it was
very humid. I tried wax, graphite, whatever, but finally had to solve the
problem by filing the holes that the keys go through (very carefully, so they
stayed square, and didn't get too big.)

I don't know if this is something true in general of new hurdy-gurdies or just
mine, but some of the tangents seem to stick in place when pushed and don't
slide back down like their supposed to. They slide alright when I just push
them in and out when i'm not playing, but when I do play, some of them just
won't back out. Is this something that will work itself out if I play it often
or is this something that might require surgery?
