Duh! If I provide 90 degree bends in the long rails, the I suspect a "wood wedge" (actually, a complimentary pair!) on the top and bottom insides could 'tilt' the rails to give an overall slope to the *panels*. In fact (Mark T., help me out!) a planer with a 10 degree offset could be used to angle the *inside* surfaces of the top and bottom wood pieces so that a 90 degree bracket 'tilts' perfectly! You wouldn't need to plane off but ~1.5 inches back from the front edges: just enough to give the slope. I'm thinking 5/8" birch plywood here. Thoughts? Paul S.
