Looks like cross-sectional dimensions for the curvature of the ramps or the thickness of the lam running up it in an effort to solve a gap between the two.

Looks like you were trying to instruct someone what to do about a gap in the glue joint on the riser. In option #1, 'The form could be padded (D) to move the air hose closer and put more pressure there. Or in option#2, the radius on the belly side of the riser could be increased to eliminate the need, mostly in the area of (E)?' And you probably also told them to be careful with the thickness of the fadeout area because the new radius would tend to change the rate of taper there. i.e create a difference between (B) and (F).... a crucial area.

D is a shim to push the air hose down tighter, the rest is the theory ( good one) of straightening the curve to let the lam lay down better.

I learned years ago, if I'm going to make notes about something, I need to write it as though it's a message for someone else that doesn't know anything about the topic.
Sometimes I can still wonder what I was making notes about.

does shimming the air hose really work?, It doesn't change the air pressure inside it.

If you have a need to shim the air hose then your gap is too much. So the shim lessens the gap hoping for better glue line.

Yes, it works, making the gap smaller in a certain area. And yes if you had to shim the entire bow that would need some attention! :o
Stay sharp, Kenny.

And always shim between the hose and the form.  :o

  Your answers are good and you mostly have it figured out...  But to solve the riddle no one has solved what 'C' is...

C is the distance you place the hose pad D from the end of butt.

C is the straight place at end of lam that helps it lay down

Gee, Rich only 160 fps??  None of it matters.   Just throw the form on the firewood pile! :)
