I knew it was going to happen, since there were unsightly bulges, and I had made some mistakes in building it.
Holz #1 collapsed yesterday. I was going to completely rebuild it, but that would have taken too long. So I tore it down until it was about waist high, then stacked a new ring of firewood around it. That is, it's now about 9 feet in diameter instead of 7. Too bad the wood got wet, but it will dry out. Pictures show pre-collapse (and pre-bulges), after collapse and after rebuild. Much less tall now.
