About a year ago I thought how fantastic it would be if Google not only allowed us to search just one site (as it already did), but also allowed us to pre-determine a whole list of sites from which search results would be produced. I couldn't figure out why they hadn't done it already as it seemed a complete no-brainer. After all some of the smartest people on the planet work at that firm. Anyway time past and I got increasingly frustrated that I decided to have a search around for something similar elsewhere. I found a search engine called www.gigablast.com that did exactly what I wanted, so even though it wasn't Google I set a search tool up with their offering.
Then all of a sudden ... you guessed it ... I should have had faith because now Google have indeed released that tool and boy is it good. I did not waste a minute and set about working on creating a search engine specifically tailored to provide search results relating to plastic kit modelling advice and techniques. The list is growing all the time, with the aim that it become the definitive Plastic Kit Modelling Tips and Techniques search engine.

If you like the idea and want to contribute by adding a site(s) that is not in the list, let me know by completing the Contact Us form.
Lastly, why not pass it on. Let other people know about it. I honestly believe the idea is so important it should be shared with abandon!
