Within the comments sorahn explained how this came to be, the first step is to use a vertical core wood piece. This is followed by placing 4m core wood at each half rotation, you can then place the stairs on each of the 4m pieces to create the spiral staircase. The user also chose to use more wood around the outside to give it more of a polished look. They went on to emphasis players should build it however they want, all that it needs is the support of the initial structure using the core wood pieces. They even took out the core wood centre and voila, the staircase didn't collapse, which is a common theme within Valheim. We've included the progress pictures posted by sorahn below.
