See #18 above, spot on.
The threaded blocks like the OPs stand are a very good method for a steel stand. They allow for proper thread engagement and spread the load to the walls of the tube. A welded in nut could be OK depending on how its done. Two things I would avoid are, any configuration where the weld itself is carrying the weight. Or the nut in the middle of a horizontal face of a thin wall tube.
I agree with All_talk assessment, I was worried about the weight too but I talked to my fabricator before about the leveling system in gonna use so he suggested this, can you show your fabricator my levellers and ask his opinions?
