Tips and hints all welcomed
So my missus dosent support my hobby verywell, altho she has suggested i turb the back shed i to a photography studio for her, so im having to construct 4 false walls thatcab be broken down and moved easily but still stable as hell, andcant drill into the 'garage' 'shed' at all, thinking make a few frames cut to size to hold the stabdard marine grade ply wood from bunnings which is 800-1200mm and piece it together, as we rent needs to be portable for future and possible upgrade/downgrade, all hints and tips welcomed

A simple 70mm by 35mm timber frame. make each wall in two sections. if the ceiling is 2.4 m high make your frame 1800 high by the length of the room and another at 600 high, (if you go with your 800 by 1200 panels upright) sit it on stop then it can be taken out of of a standard door.
Screw the frame together so it can be taken apart.
I woulnt use marine ply as it is a waste of money, look at standard ply 16mm or better then that would be structafloor. this is in longer lengths (2.4m to 3.6m and 900 wide)
this can be screwed on for easy dismantle. If you do use a 900 structrafloor i would make each wall 1200 high so the join in the wall and the join in the sheets stagger.
You can also look at steel frame but this is a pain if you want to move it around and you have to keep screwing your walling into it. the advantage is you can build it with tin snips and a drill.
the max spacing is 600mm and you will want a double stud at one end with a block between them,
you can make the wall full height if you want to fully dismantle each stud to get it out the door.
Probably havnt helped much but this is what i would do

Re: Tips and hints all welcomed
Thats magic, all help and tips is goood for me, as im nocarpenter, needs to be easily moved via trailer or blablabla, i think ill go with the wooden structure, and zig zag the wall together so to speak, got to attach some power plugs(aka extension cords and adapters n [censored] thru the false wall to give her easy access and less cords on the flooor, all cords hidden, as she loves this and wants to do it for some money in the long run, so i want a niiice clean finish, hahaha...
