If you've got a warehouse or something nearby, sometimes packing inserts are perfect for things like this. Alternatively, the risers people put under their beds could work (and stack).

If you cut off the bottom lip with a saw, these would totally work imo:

Risers 1

Risers 2

Risers 3

Last one is out of stock but they have lots of others on that site. I'd look at a set locally in Walmart / Target / etc and see what you think. You'd definitely need to cut off the bottom, though, and they may already be a little too wide.

Other than LOS, just make sure to deploy the appropriate amount less from the edge of the pod after deepstriking it, too (say 1/2"). But I think they're an extremely workable solution and great for transport and testing your list

Take a measurement yourself though, because if they're counting that "skirt" a part of the base width, you can easily ignore it in-game and it will be closer to the correct diameter.

That should do it! Heck, if you add doors/hatches and basecoat them those are not bad at all (just be sure to close the small open top end with some type of hatch/bit).
