Hi,
nice tut! I've played around with modular ring stations too but didn't found a nice looking construction yet.
My monolithic ring station is already quite big and works fine - although it required a really huge booster to get into orbit. See here some pictures: http://pogoflyer.tumblr.com/post/69962718183/meanwhile-on-kerbin-the-new-space-station-is-being

Clockwork13, you mean my solid ring station? Well, actually it was quite easy to put it into orbit - in two pieces.
1st piece was the hughe ring with central 'hub'. It required a heavy two-staged booster: 1st stage = 7 orange fuel tanks + 7 Rockomax Mainsail, 2nd stage = 7 orange fuel tanks + 7 Rockomax Skipper (the higher ISP is here the key! ).
With this booster you easily get the ring into a 100 km orbit.
The second piece was much lighter and used a smaller booster. The big tug was only used to move the pieces into a 250 km orbit.
