Thanks George, I've replaced a few of those dryer belts back when I did electrical work. Aside from the heating coils, they're usually the only thing to go bad. I thought about melting the ends back together, I might just try it to see if it will get me by. If I clamp one end of the belt, heat up a steel plate with a torch, hold the plate between the ends and slide it out when the ends start melting. I'll see if it works, got nothing to lose before a replacement shows up.
Thanks
Bill
