The most difficult part here is making the wall strong enough so it

it would be built much like a standard wall with studs 16" on center,

and a
top and bottom plate. Double top plate and maybe 2x6 rather than 2x4

might
add some strength.

Yeah, that's a problem if the idea is to make it essentially
non-permanent...it'll be difficult to attach it and support it w/o a
solid tie-in to the floor. And a solid tie will be hard to achieve w/o
damaging the floor at least in a couple of spots.



Maybe really strong magnets?
