The hurdy gurdy is a expensive instrument that needs constant care..maintenance ...how did poor people afford this expensive instrument..?.and how did they manage to keep it in proper care.....set up etc...?

[@Overcrook65]

It all depends on how you define poor people. If you measure them by the availability of hurdy-gurdies, many people today are poorer than a beggar in the Middle Ages. It's a different story if you use loaves of bread as a yardstick.
Today, thanks to industrialisation, poor people walk around with irreparable mobile phones.
