The '''T-split''' is a chain link that branches in two opposite directions. It is often used to add bulk to a chain when it runs into a wall. It can also be used to repurpose a non-compact [[straight chain]] that has been cut in one direction by a block of the same color spawning on one of the ends, leading to a branch where both groups in the link are the same color.

A deli.</div>

Combining the T-split with the [[sandwich]] results in a compound form known as the '''deli''', for its inclusion of multiple sandwiches and resemblance to a deli counter. It is compact and provides its own bracing.
