Pinblocks

[Farrell]

How does this Vortex chiller differ from just a nice stream of compressed air, such as that one gets from the little gun one uses to blow out the crud from inside a piano? I find that just the regular stream keeps the drill bit down to a temperature where I can easily hold the bit in my fingers. Is there some advantage to this Vortex chiller?
