"Last time I was down to Amish country, I saw this in one of the shops.https://www.amazon.com/Amish-Craftsman-Furniture-Childrens-Provincial/dp/B07JK8ZWKJ/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_75_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=6G1DXZ9EB15W7T872J1Z"

"Ok, ok, fine! I'll be helpful this time. Here's your answer. The handle is weighted, so it stays on one side until you flip it over with your foot. No bending down."

"Where are you, again? I've lived in semi-rural Ohio most of my life and have never come across one of these. Also, the only people I've met with boots like that are "cowboys" who like to line dance and drive lifted trucks."

"Done!"

on: Improving the Ergonomics of Carrying Awkward Items: The WoodOX Sling
"Not much to it. You could sew it if you want, but I couldn't be bothered as a kid and just tied it in a knot. If you make it long enough, you could still do the over-the-head thing the LogOx does. For loose loads, pull one "handle" through the other to make it like a slipknot so the weight of the load keeps it tight. Yes, you give up a handle by doing that, but you gain stability."
