Anyone Replaced Timing Chain By Themselves?

Can't get ahold of Grimgaunt and no one else around who's savvy enough to help roll a new chain in (I'm the one everyone asks to help work on their cars, not the other way around), so....

Who's done one by themselves and can offer some advice on it.

Had a Laverda Jota 1000 that I replaced a few timing chains on myself, but could turn the crank WHILE holding the chain, not so with this.

Maybe safety wire a weight to the short end while it's being pulled to keep it from falling in? Maybe bungies?
