My deck needs some major attention ... a good pressure washing, some new paint and sanding/finishing the top to name a few. But one of the to-do items is to make the railing studier. Right now the railing is a little wobbly. I didn't build the deck, it was here when I bought the house, so I didn't have any say in how this was done :wconfused:
Here's where I need some advice ... is there a better way to secure the rail? The pictures below help show what I have.
This is the deck railing from afar.

This is how the railing uprights are secured (two screws)

And this cruddy little picture is showing from under the deck where the rail uprights are screwed in (see the screws in the middle)

Here I was trying to show the relationship of the deck railing to the deck main supports.
