Newbie Question: Ring/Sphere worlds

[KenB_Atl]

Okay, looked through the list, but did not see this answered. Have taken over the universe except for 1 blockaded planet, researched everything to research, and still do not have a movement capable ship large enough to haul these components. The only way I can figure to make these is to make a planet where you want to build one, build a shipyard, build 15 or so of the big bases with 1 component each in them, then set them off. I tried making tugboats, but the tractor beams won't work on your own ships. Am I missing something here?
