Then went inside with the curtain rods

Correction to my earlier post. That’s Arnold Rowland

But we have the key information: the rods were submitted for testing for Mr Oswald's prints. This means they must have been found at a location that merited their being tested for Mr Oswald's prints. And the only such location I, you or anyone else can think of is the Depository. Because the evidentiary stakes of a fingerprint test on rods found anywhere else would be zero.

I'm not sure I can think of any evidentiary value of Oswald's prints being on curtain rods found anywhere.

You may not understand or accept this, but your "logic inference" strategy is commonly used by "I am right unless you can prove me wrong" LNs.

I have to agree.  It's just what "Richard" does when he asserts that his speculative narrative about the rifle is "evidence" and if you don't agree then the problem is your "standards of evidence", not his.

Then how do you explain this quote:

Mr. BALL - The paper, was the color of the paper, that you would get in a grocery store, is that it, a bag in a grocery store?
Mr. FRAZIER - Right. You have seen, not a real light color but you know normally, the normal color about the same color, you have seen these kinds of heavy duty bags you know like you obtain from the grocery store, something like that, about the same color of that, paper sack you get there.

That's not contradictory.  He said the same color as the heavy duty bags like you obtain from the grocery store.

When exactly did somebody write the serial number on Waldman 07? Do you know?

We could perhaps settle all this by looking at the original microfilm and seeing if any other order on the reel had a serial number handwritten in on the "order blank" form.

Oh wait, we CAN'T.  It's "missing".

Oswald already had curtain rods installed in his room according to his landlady and the rods are shown in this photo. What would be the need for him to be carrying rods around in a bag to work or needing new rods to be installed?

Well, for one thing we don't know what place they would be for.  He and Marina had talked on Thursday evening about getting an apartment.

For another thing:
