Joseph MeyerThe drive belt on my clothes dryer broke with a loud bang this morning. I bought a new one at a local appliance parts store and repaired the dryer myself, mostly to avoid the hassle of calling and then waiting for a repair person. It was a $16 repair made easy by a how-to YouTube video. <a href="https://c.im/tags/DoItYourself" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DoItYourself</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ApplianceRepair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ApplianceRepair</a>
