Some cheesey ASCII rendition of overlap.  Maybe it will display properly on 
your machine,
at least well enough to give you the idea.


  Large overlap - M is the main journal, R is the rod

       RRR
   MMMMRRRMMM   MMM
   MMMMRRRMMMRRRMMM
   MMMM   MMMRRRMMM
             RRR


Small overlap


     RRR
     RRR
     RRR
  MMM   MMM   MMM
  MMM   MMM   MMM
  MMM   MMM   MMM
           RRR
           RRR
           RRR
