[RE-wrenches] Top of POST mount

Here is my "cobulated" idea, admittedly done this way to take advantage of parts in stock:

Unirac Solarmount rails, sandwiched together and lagged to post, and a brace from L-Feet and ¼"x2" aluminum bar. Modules top or bottom mount clips to rails.

 

Think this will work, or will the "east-west" twisting be too much?

Cobulate is my new favorite word.  I just hope Sarah Palin doesn't get a hold of it and begin to... cobulate... a viable candidacy.

	I'm looking for a solution to mount a 230W module on the top of an existing 6x6 wood post. It can be side of post mounted, but I'd prefer top of post to get it up a little higher. Any ideas/products appreciated.
