Umbra Cappa Nickel 1.25" Double Drapery Rod, 72" To 144"

Q: I could not figure how to make the 72-144 rod work for a 90 wide window. How to determine the cut, and how to connect them seamlessly after the cut?

Make the cut with a hack saw and clamp the rod down on a bench or use a bench vise (makes it much easier to hold piece steady and get a good cut). Use a file to smooth the cut edges after making the cut. Then insert the middle, smaller diam. rod in between the two outer rods. To get to a 90 width, assuming the rods come 51" long, you will have to cut off at least 12" off from one outer rod.....or, (if your anal, lol) you can cut off an even amt. from both outer rods to make them even (but that's overkill since nobody will see after the drapes on)

Q: my window measures 70" wide. Does the rod extend to exactly 72"? Just wondering if there is any wiggle room or do I need to go up to the wider length

I just measured mine, and at absolute full extension, it's 75 inches. Subtract the 1-inch finials, and you have 73 inches. I haven't hung it yet, so it might not be functional extended all the way to 75 inches, as it seems a little wobbly at that point.

Q: Does this set contain or need a center support when the rods are fully extended?

It comes with a center support in addition to end supports and yes, you will need it if the rods are fully extended. I used a total of 28 clip rings and 4 56x96 panels to cover 3 side-by-side windows spanning 110" (including trim).

Q: Are the finials removable? Can they be replaced by decorative ones?

They are removable. As long as the screws on the new end pieces are the right size, you should have no trouble replacing them.
