I am in the process of adding insulation from the inside and now I have reached my future bathroom.
My ceiling height is about 2.75.
I place one stud on the floor and one on the ceiling, which makes my standing studs about 2.65.
My hardware store only has studs that are 4-5 meters, which means I get a heck of a lot of waste.
I have looked at Bauhaus, but theirs are only 2.40.
Is there a place around Stockholm, Enköping where you can find studs in cut lengths?

What do you have in the walls from before? Can you place the studs instead? Alternatively, it's probably not too much of a problem to splice every other stud? They don't have any load-bearing function...

I have a solid plank wall behind, so they don't really have any load-bearing function... however, you want it to be stable, so it feels wrong to splice (I know it holds anyway...
)
Horizontal is also an option, but then you should have gypsum with beveled edges on the short sides as well, and I already have gypsum... (I know it can be spackled
)
As you can see, my arguments don't hold, but I want to do as I've always done before - vertical studs, in this call cc30.

Studs of length 5.40 shouldn't be a problem to find in a well-stocked lumberyard, right? It's a standard measurement. It might take some time to pull out of the pile, but...
If you don't pick them yourself, it's probably better to go for falling lengths with lots of waste, the special selection cost is usually substantial.
Beijer Lissma, Fredells, Woody, I guess they all have studs in these lengths.
