Ok I posted a file to CF, What I did was pull a work plane 25mm off of the
YZ plane in the origin folder , also I constrained the sweep path sketch to
the center point in the origin folder.
This way the work plane always stays 25 mm from the center point of the
frame. This gives you a 50 mm overlap.
If you look close you will notice that Adaptive Sheet:1 is constrained on 5
Sides where Sheet 2 is only constrained on 3.
Sheet 1 adapts Sheet 2 follows suite
Let me know if you have any questions.
