Good luck.
Try and find someone else to do it!
But seriously I think it is really a matter of working out what is best for each pig.
I have four guinea pigs and 3 of them I can do alone, or with the help of one of my daughters (they are 10 and 12) because I think it is important to involve them.
I tried the tips in the link above and a slightly different method works best for each of my piggies.
And then there is Ruby.
Ruby take a team of 3, a tightly rolled fleece blanket, and a large carrot strategically positioned between her teeth and the person doing the cutting.
