It really is so easy ... just use one thumb to push the wheel as far back in the dropouts as possible and keep up the pressure, keeping the wheel central between the chainstays (not too hard so that you end up with too much chain tension) then with the other hand, tighten up one track nut at a time.
This is all done with the bike upside down ... easy-peasy, lemon sqeezey !!!
