Yay!! and Nay!!
My pole came!!!! YAY https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I am sooo excited! BUT, I can’t get it up. I am horrible at knocking on the ceiling to find the joists so I need help from someone and the person that was going to help me is out of town for the weekend. What is even sadder? It took me about 20 minutes just to open the box it was taped so well. I didn’t want to tell my family I had purchased the pole, but now I think I may need to so I can borrow their stud finder.
I wanna pole at home!!!!

I dont know your situation but i got my stud finder at Menards for $6. I use it all the time now for other things (hanging pictures ect. I was bad at the knocking on the ceiling too..It all sounded the same to me https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Maybe I will run to Home Depot and see what they have. I am feeling a bit broke after the actual purchase of the pole.
I have just run into a new problem. I decided I wanted to put it into my bedroom for the time being because I don’t want it in the middle of my condo and it being the first thing you see when you walk in. I live in a building with a lot of older people and I can just imagine the looks and things I may run into if they see it. Knowing this group, they would make a formal complaint against me and put something new into the bylaws https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_ncool.gif But anyways, I need to move my bedroom furniture about a foot to the other side to make a bit more space and I can’t move my bed by myself. I was able to move my nightstand but not the bed – urgh!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif I may just try to put it up anyways and then move the bed later and just not try anything that would extend out.

Ok, now I seriously need some help https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_exclaim.gif My roommate helped me move my furniture and I started assembling my pole. Great! Things are going swimmingly https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_nemo.gif until I go to attach my 125mm extension (my ceiling is 7ft. 10in). The x-pole came with the 180mm x-joint already attached. So I go to attach the 125mm extension and the hex screws will NOT move https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_exclaim.gif Not on the side that is already attached nor the side that I need to insert into pole B. I cant figure out if they are already tight or loose or anything bc they just will not move. I am sooo frustrated and I do not know what to do. They actually look rusted out, which honestly, just pisses me off. And of course, I can’t call x-pole until Tuesday because of Labor Day.
Any ideas??? I really want to play on my new pole!
