I've included the stl files for printing the launch pad. The Hub middle holes is .256 dia. This is to allow a 1/4" launch rod to be inserted into both the hub and the ground below it to help stabilize the 72" length. I've also incuded an Autocad 2018 file for anyone who wants to change any design. The legs are 12" long and swivel through the hub mounts. One side of the hole is threaded for a 1/4-20 bolt. Mae sure to chase the hole out with a 1/4-20 tap. The legs are 2 pc CA'd together on a lap joint. You can use the through holes for screws if it makes you feel better but mine holds just fine with glue. There is a 14 gauge round steel plate that sits on top of the hub as a heat shield. I have raised it off the PETG with magnets to prevent heat damage to the launch pad. All of the files including the gcode is in the zipped file.
