I have three other items in my "todo" for this experiment: one, make several bows "play nice" together, two: fix it so that as the bows pull away from their references lines, as they will when this is a countdown timer, they "ease" from the angle found with your algorithm to a simpler one found with the same angle as the inner arc, so that they don't look peculiar as they fall away from their neighbor, and three, to express the size of the bow as a percentage of the total size from reference line to reference line.

This seems like a lot of work for just a stupid visual effect on a simple clock face, but it's been a heck of a learning experience. The amount of knowledge I have encoded into these experiments is a small primer, and a mental repository, on canvas drawing and arithmetic.

So I'm not worried about the "crossing 359" issue. I'm limiting my problem to a simple clock drawing.
