It can also be the light. If it’s a cooler CCT which people tend to use it will mute a lot of colors pretty bad. Wanna go warmer about 4000-5000k. Using high CRI helps as well. OP’s looks cooler than I would have gone.

It’ll be more like being in a jewelry store. They have great lighting if you have ever noticed. I believe even the nicer make up places do this as well. Could be wrong.

TLDR: could be color temp of light and not the light being too dim.

Hi Ether0p12348,

Your post has been automatically removed as it appears you are asking:

  • What product or tool to buy.
  • Where to buy a product or tool.
  • For product, tool or brand recommendation.

We do not allow these posts as they lead to a great deal of spam. /r/DIY is focused on the how, what technique to employ and how to use the tools.

Other places you can get help. If you area asking:

  • What general type of product or tool required to carry out a particular task, consider asking your question in the Getting Started thread at the top of /r/DIY, rather than creating a new post

  • If you need recommendations for a product, you'll probably have better luck in a more specialised subreddit, eg /r/HomeImprovement or /r/woodworking etc.

For help requests please be sure you've read the Full Sub Rules.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Any type of 12-volt winch should work just fine - 60 feet isn’t that far, and you’re well within the weight limit of the cheapest winch. (Even a half ton winch could safely lift 330 pounds.)

For your trolley, I’d look at making “rails” from L-channel steel. Put the vertical piece in the outside. The cart can just be a square of steel with some roller skate wheels on it. They tend to have good bearings and are fairly durable.

The advantage I see using the L-channel is that you can go over whatever your existing landscaping is - you could have flowers, grass, etc. in the middle, and the cart should mostly just push them out of the way.
