You can
try and speed up the drying time with a hair dryer and it will help to a certain extent but it isn't the 'magic method'. Oils evaporate much differently than acrylics.
Think of putting water in a pan on the stove, it evaporates very quickly with the heat. Now put some cooking oil in that same pan, on the same heat setting. It not only evaporates extremely slower but it may also actually simply just thicken up in the pan.
You almost have to understand evaporation on a scientific level, as evaporation is basically molecules separating themselves from their attachment with others in the liquid and then moving off into the air above. Heating the liquid makes the molecules move faster and weakens their attachment to each other. That is why warm liquids may evaporate more quickly than if they were cold.
However, the molecules in some liquids, like oil are rather large and well-tangled up and attached to each other. This means that evaporation, if it occurs at all, is very slow. That is why the cooking oil, even when heated to a very high temperature doesn't always evaporate to an appreciable extent.
Simply put, it may speed things up a bit, but it may just actually thicken/harden the oil on the surface.

1) Place the oil , that you are going to use, on a piece of Corrugated Cardboard. It will help to draw out the Lint seed Oil & help to kill the sheen ! Let it set for 5-10 minutes. For some reason It has to be corrugated Cardboard. I think it's because you can get some air flow between th sheets & helps ?
That's actually featured in the video Erik, are you telling me you didn't watch it!?! ;D
