I also learned that there's a LOT of leaning over with BOTH hands on the
heavy stones and you can't get around that (because there is a wall in
front of you). The best you can do is put a towel on your head to protect
it as you lean against the wall and use both hands on the stone.

There may be a special one of these for stone-- I know they are
indispensable [to me] when setting heavy blocks or carry bricks-
