That cake would have been cool as hell any time in the last thirty years.

Really well done! I hadn’t thought about a pixel art cake before and now I want one.

ive seen these used sticking out of concrete, the bend acting as the anchor... then the wood is bolted to this.

Tandybaum,

I could see but it seems like a washer would be a much easier way to do this rather than bending like that

over_clox,

Even with a washer, the head of a straight bolt won’t hold very well in concrete when you go trying to tighten it, it’ll most likely start spinning and possibly even damage the concrete.

Tandybaum,

That’s true. I was thinking pull through but you’re right about spinning while tightening.

geekworking,

J Bolts for concrete don’t have a head on them. The bent part is embedded into the concrete and would never be turned. Forming a hex head would be a wasted extra production cost.

I’ve had to help someone tighten a bolt like this before. It was used to attach the deck assembly to the underside of a riding lawnmower.

What a remarkable bolt! Can it come and do my place when it’s finished?

Very strange, but looks prebent

At my old job we had some of these on the wall for hanging our hardhats.

Ugh, happens to me all the time when I get overconfident trying to hammer in bolts.

That is one of those right angle bolts for getting into tight places. Hang onto it because they cost about $15 each new. It is specially made to transfer the torque from the head around the 90 degree bend. Just line it up with the nut, slap a driver on there and go to town. I promise, it will be amazing and nothing bad will happen.

I think you can buy similar screws here lol
