For Safari users, make a bookmark of this:

http://www.google.com/search?q=site:www.mikenchell.com


and add it to your Bookmarks Bar (or Bookmarks Menu), maybe call it "Search TTT". To use, click the "Search TTT" button, this brings up a Google search of the entire TTT site, the Google search menu will say "site:www.mikenchell.com", just add whatever you want to search on after the this, for example:

site:www.mikenchell.com titebond


to search for "titebond."



It's simpler than it looks, really.
