Basement of 29.5 BHDS

This weekend I was thinking about the flimsy wall in the basement of my 2016 29.5 BHDS that hides all the wire and ducts. Has anyone framed up a wall and re attached the wall board that comes with the unit to make this more stable, as well as adding support to the floor above? I see all these other 5er's out there that have nice sturdy walls in the basements for hanging stuff on them, and this model you have no stability.

Aero_Dave or Force?

The storage under the master bed, is considered a basement. Some people call it storage, others call it a basement.

To keep weight down, have you considered angle irons for the corners ?
To take nice job with wood, I usually use wood glue then use air finish nailer.
That would strengthen all.
