045 is a 45mm pole, CR is chrome and the last 4 digits should be the length in mm. The extensions are in sleeves that are specifically cut to their size so it is impossible to fit a 750 mm extension into a 500 mm sleeve.
So basically: A Pole + dome is 48" totally collapsed. The 500+250+125 adds 34.5" for a total of 82.5 inches. Your ceiling is 84 inches. There is no way this will not work unless you are not installing all of this correctly or do not have your A Pole totally collapsed.

My go to move is always a flag. I REALLY like messing with guys on this one, and it totally messes with them! But then again, I can bust out a flag without even thinking. This is the most fun late in the evening at a bar with drunken idiots who fall on their faces. I kind of use it as payback. But then again, I am evil that way.

What pieces are you trying to put together?
A Pole is the bottom pole that has the adjuster cover and goes into the base. B Pole is the first extension and it is about 3 feet long.

Being a male I would be concerned with any multipiece pole and more so with the PS. At least with the X you can order the longer joints which give you 5 inches of reinforcement at the joint. PS will only have the small amount that is threaded at that joint so if you are doing any power moves there is a very real possibility that you will bend if not break the pole in half in a short time frame. Yes, this does happen. If you are leaning to PS do yourself a favor and order a one piece.

Have you checked to see if it is expanded and needs to be moved in the opposite direction? If you look at the crack in the steel when it is loose the two pieces oif metal will be almost touching, when it is expanded they will be a few mm apart.

Wow, really? The ones that are in my picture were normally like $3 a pack but HL always has scrapbooking stuff on sale so they were like $1.50 a pack.
Seriously check the scrapbooking section. If you do not need Swarovski crystals, there are only $5 for 300 rhinestones:

HL also has downloadable 40% off coupons that I use all the time.

CapFeb, my local Hobby Lobby has a TON of rhinestones. One thing I have found though is that they generally have the Swarovski crystals in a locked case in the jewelry section. Look in teh same area where they have the silver necklaces and jewelry. It is usually a long case near the end of one of the jewelry isles. They also have a lot of self stick rhinestones in the scrapbooking section. Surprisingly these have held up rather well on a pair of shoes that I added accent stone to. I think I have worn them 3 or 4 times and have only lost one or two stones.
Darn…I thought I had pics here but they must be on the DIY FB page.

Look them dead in the eye and say NO. Keep the eye contact going until they are uncomfortable for even asking you.

This is the thread where I saw it. You may want to contact X Pole Tech and see if there has been any progress on the video:

I could have sworn that XPole recently posted here about how to polish/sand your brushed pole to get a satin finish but I can't seem to find it. Not sure if it was for the SS or brass.

Are you not on the DIY heels group on FB?

E6000 seems to be the glue of choice.
