Chain (Rotational)- These cannot exist as single word alone, but it links to infinite repetitions of the word. Easyily recognized in circle or a spiral.

Eminent ( Chain at 't' )

Chain (Bilateral)- These have the same properties as rotational chains, but read the same in a mirror or from behind.

Master ( Chain at 'r' )
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Web ambigrams- These are an extended version of the chain ambigram, creating a vertical series of horizontal chains.

Excellent ( Chain at 't' linked at both 'l')
