I think if you go to a real plumbing supply house, they will have flexible
gas supply lines for what you want to do. It's not the same type of flimsy
brass-colored ridged flexible gas line that you might have now for the last
couple of feet that connects to the dryer. It's a bright yellow
plastic-covered flexible gas supply line. When I had a new gas heater put
in, that's what they used as the supply line and mine is about 15 feet long.
A plumber recently told me that's pretty much all they use these days -- not
lengths of rigid threaded pipe sections like I was always used to seeing for
gas supply lines.

Bad post on my part! I meant the gas line. (The exhaust is getting cut
by two thirds.)

Thanks!
