Yeah, the idea was to disassemble it and take it with me when I moved out. The inner frame would be assembled using screws, rather than nails and also not using any glue.
It might take several days, or even a couple of weekends if you have busy days during Mondays to Fridays, to disassemble it. And that’s if you originally built the whole thing in one go and kept in mind and made notes of how to disassemble it.
The worst situation is if your lease suddenly ends on short notice and you don’t have time to disassemble it on the time you have left before you have to leave.
Another thing is that even if you disassemble it on time, the dimensions of your frame probably won’t fit well into the next room you rent in a different place. And then you have to do a bunch of cutting and maybe buying even more materials or throwing away some of what you had, or find somewhere to store it or something.
There’s also the possibility that you might accidentally damage the original floor or walls even though you try to be super careful, if you go about constructing such a thing.
These sorts of potential complications are part of the reason that I ended up not actually building such a thing myself so far. Aside from also not having much in terms of extra cash on hand at the time to even go buy the materials I would have needed for it.
The half wall you suggested is far more practical for sure.
