I built a 30 foot garden wall two ways, and the difference in speed was crazy

My back hurts just reading that title, honestly. I did a much smaller stone wall last summer and it took three full weekends, so a 30-foot one sounds like a huge job. I get what @kevin_sullivan is saying about a time machine, because sometimes you finish a step and just wish you could skip ahead. The difference in speed between methods must have been wild to actually see side by side. That kind of project really makes you respect the old ways of building things, even if the new way saves your body from giving out.

So did you build one wall with your hands and the other with a time machine?
