Safest and easiest: go to your local auto parts store and buy a bag of oil dry. It looks like cat litter. Submerge the ball in the bag for a day or two. Simple, easy and safe.

I bought a Nesco food dehydrator from Bed Bath and Beyond ($55 with 20% coupons that arrive for the wife every week...) and ordered 4 tray inserts for it (another $28 off Amazon.com) and took some sheers and cut out the plastic middle of all the trays, put a ball cup on bottom, and boom - bowling ball de-oiler.
Just wipe and rotate every twenty minutes or so at 130 degrees.

Buckets don't fit, the lip needs to be wider than the edges of the dehydrator lid - there's a giant thread from two or three of us doing this over at the BBE forums.
One guy used a giant tub and cut the dehydrator lid into fit with a bucket inside to hold the balls and another guy did it with no bucket.
I chose to order extra trays and cut out the middle because this lets the air intake heat it and send the air down the sides of the trays (like the dehydrator is designed for) and back out up the middle like it is supposed to work and thereby circulating the air better.
Here's a pic of mine, does a pretty good job.

Agreed. I use my wifes hair dryer right now and the only way to get it hot enough is to put it on full blast. which then is REEAALLLLYYYY annoying. Going to go and check this out. Just have to convince the old lady that I need a dehydrator and not say what for!
Any problems with the ball getting to hot while using one of these??
