Just suggestions man, cheaper is not nescessarily better. A $5 part may solve the problem, but may add to complexity, weight and cause a stress riser. Right now your pad looks too flimsy for even MPR, and lifting those thin extremities off the ground will make it even weaker.
Take it or leave it. My dad broke a launch pad that was 1" steel piping in a tripod arrangement, with the legs chained together for maximum strength and rigidity. Broke a 1/4" forged eyebolt right off and bent the other two badly. Thank gosh it still went straight up. Never underestimate thrust, it will come back and bite you if you do.
