Jim,

My wife and I rolled my BE shell on a carpet rescued from someone's garbage. 
Between us, we weigh 230 pounds, so it should not be hard for any two 
people.   The shell rests very comfortably on the sill.  I put one leg 
clamped to the front spring area and jammed under a nearby floor to prevent 
further rolling, and tied two ropes to the ceiling to prevent returning to 
the bottom. The ropes are loose and I am not sure the leg is used much. 
Picture attached.
