Well yeah, but you wouldn't use it that way for an adjustable foot -- that's a weird special case where the bolt is in compression. Normally the bolt is in tension, and that's when you'd want the T-nut on the opposite side of the wood.

Oooh. I thought we were talking exclusively about adjustable feet, since that was the OP. Wasnt even thinking about other applications.
