I would prefer the mesh to be shrunk to alleviate this.
Same for straw and soil stockpiles.

While I like the smaller bounding box, they're just small enough you can sqeeze 5 into 4 tiles, and 25 into 16 if you fill in a space instead of just linear piles. Squeezing piles together vs just dumping them with the wheelbarrow saves space (not to mention there's no easy way to align piles with the wheelbarrow... or isn't that I can find). Doing this makes it easier to grab things out of or put into the piles consecutively because you're not sticking on the corner of the pile, which is horribly annoying, especially when you get wedged just a bit and have to 'wiggle' to get unstuck (or worse case, hearth).

I'll have to agree: make the visuals smaller. Also, if possible, let us ctrl+click place wheelbarrow contents so we can save space.

Smaller stockpiles (or even differently shown for better accessibility and to reflect the actual bounding box size) should be an option in a custom client, if there isn't one yet.

How about the angler bounding box while we're at it?

It's rotated 90 degrees compared to the model
