Now, this was when the bolts and bolt holes were visible. With modern "easy clean" toilets, all the hardware is hidden. So you are standing there with a fucking 100 pound toilet, trying to line up bolts you cannot fucking see on a wax ring you have one shot at.
I managed to do it but man I was shaking like a dog shitting razor blades.

Not sure which brand you were messing with...but...with the Toto UniFit system, it is actually easier, as you set the wax ring with the adapter/unifit, and then you just set the toilet down on that, with no risk of dislodging/moving the wax ring.
You also get to shim/level the bowl, if necessary, without worry of upsetting the ring, as well.
I just set a Toto Aquia IV a few days ago...slowly creeping towards the finish line on our 3rd FL bath...
