Hi there,

It would probably make more sense to do the math on the actual parameters of the cone and draw the whole thing cleanly. There's enough online calculators for unwrapped cone surfaces and once you have the values it would be easy enough to draw the partial circles in AI and draw everything you need in a clean manner...
