I was looking at mounts online that hold them at an angle and this idea occurred to me. It's very simple.
You take a cut piece of 1/2" PVC and slide it into the foramen, and hot glue in place on both ends (you can drip the hot glue right down the pipe to get the inside). I chose hot glue because it's easy but can be removed if needed. You then take 2 push pins and hot glue those at the base here.
The purpose of the thumbtacks is simply to keep it from rotating. There is very little pressure on them since it is almost balanced. You then slide the pipe onto a large nail angled slightly upwards, and push the thumbtacks into the wall.
It seems quite stable. I've bumped it a few times and it didn't move at all.
Just thought I'd share.
