How to make a wedge for angled wood screen?

Hi workshop community 

 

I am currently building privacy screening along my pergola and some of the posts don't line up too well.

 

I have to have the horizontal slats at a certain angle which leaves a gap between the slat and the post.

 

Is it OK to have a gap with the screw exposed as seen in the picture or do I need to make a wedge or something to close the gap?

 

Thanks

Hi @Taylorpwa 

 

That's beautiful work. Thank you for sharing that update. It looks much better with the wedge installed.
