I've seen mention of tying two double-acting cylinders back to back a number of times. Does anyone have any photos or CAD of how they've actually safely implemented this (mechanically)?

Hope this is related enough to be on topic: Has anyone found a way other than a 3 position cylinder or two back to back cylinders to get 3+ stroke positions while still satisfying the rule about releasing all stored pressure with a single vent? Life would be so much easier with closed-center solenoids, but they trap air... Anyone try to pass inspection with multiple vent valves tied to one lever?
