My problem is exactly the opposite
for some reason, during our dry season (we get 10% humidity here for over three months!), many of my keys start to stick. Logic would tell me that it should be the opposite (a wood expands with humidity)...

the reason is simple and logic: If the tangentbox gets very dry the boards of the box get warped, the tangents get fixed by the warped board.

 10% humidity here

sorry, this is far beyond all limits acceptable. either humidify the air in which the instrument is kept or live with that problems.

kind regards, Simon
