As I said in post #2 do it right and add the circuit. The double 240 or if you have some single 120 CBs you can get those in double to make space for another standard 240 breaker. :)
I had a thought , the 3rd wire on the dryer is not normally a current carrying wire but actually safety gnd so I wouldn't piggy-back these outlets. Maybe I was taught wrong years ago when gnd added to wireing code , was taught to never use the gnd for current carrying, it's there for protection.
this is incorrect. Both driers and stoves(household types) require the 120 as well as 240. Remove the neutral and they wont work. the control boards, clock, motors etc etc require 120, hence the neutral
