Better way to get attach post straight to a slanted wall?

I am working on a catio (high floor terrace without a roof) and am attaching the vertical posts to the top of external wall using prexisting screws that hold the metal 'ledge' over the top of the wall, my problem is that the top of the wall is slanted inwards, if I attach the posts at 90 degree they are slanting inwards it will make the space seem more limited and I want to avoid it. I felt that bending the metal 90 degree metal holder (no clue what its called in English) will make it less rigid and make it more prone to breaking. I came up with this https://imgur.com/a/saORk6u dodgy way to get it pretty much straight and it kinda works for me, but I am not certain about the stress of the lower part of the aluminium bar. Note: This is meant to be a temporary solution for 3-5 months. After that I plan to build a more proper Is there a better way to do it? submitted by /u/Its_me_not_caring [link] [comments]
