Summary

Dyson rings forming a stable Dyson swarm, but making it look as similar to a Dyson sphere and Niven ring as possible. Individual objects are unrealistically large to show their shape. Each ring can be replaced by multiple rings in <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.burtleburtle.net/bob/scifi/swarmb.html">this way</a> (<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.burtleburtle.net/bob/scifi/dyson.html">see also</a>).

For a stable orbit a ring can be of individual objects, or like this to save on thrusters:
