OK..... thought experiment

You are looking at buying a river camp.

Camp itself is pretty rough on side but structure is
sound

Instead of doing the usual remodeling inside....adding
more wire runs.... lights ...etc

What abt building internal 'skeleton" INSIDE the room
such that you could hang lights form it..... hang
suspended porch swings...... basically anything you'd
like

Can this be done?

If yes.... what could one use for the "skeleton" that
was strong enough to support weight but also easily
disassembled and moved in case of flood?

Scaffolding?

Not a particularly good idea, though. Just
build out of something that doesn't mind getting wet.

I don't get the idea. If the skeleton is just for hanging lighting, etc,
you are still going to have to remove all of the misc from the skeleton so
that you can remove the skeleton. Jeesh, I'm tired just thining about it!
It's a cabin, for heaven sakes. Part of the beauty is the rustic nature. I
just 'built' a cabin using a new double wide and it just isn't the same.
The new codes and costs in general made this the better way to go for my
needs.
