I went back and read again your suggestion to put it against the wall and I had missed the part about using a 2x4 against the wall and pressing on the lip.

Nonetheless, as the other poster pointed out, it's possible even without having perfectly parallel surfaces to use clamps, which still seems easier than what you're talking about. I would think there might even be some clamps that can adjust to non parallel surfaces too.
