For sale is what I call a Mini-Rail or Micro-Rail Launch Pad / Platform. A rocketeer in VA made this for low-power and mid-power rockets.
The dimensions of the rail measure 15mm square, significantly smaller than the 1010 rail, and the guide in which your button would move is just over 5mm wide. See photos for more. A nylon washer under the head of an oval head screw along with a nylon bushing create the "button" that we're familiar with on many rockets. The screw size is likely a 4-40, because a 6-32 won't fit in the rail. I just don't have any 4-40s right now... NOTE: If I were using this item, I'd probably shorten that rail to about 36" - 40" max.
Nonetheless, it functions just like its big-brothers with a tilt feature for loading a rocket on the pad, a pin for locking the rail upright, a 6"x6" stainless steel blast plaste, and PVC lets round out this launch pad.
The legs are removable to be able to collapse this pad for transport...
