I don't know what ring-worlds are but I know what
Dyson Spheres are. There is enough mass in the Kuiper
Belt (estimates start at 1/3 Earth's mass) to permit
large engineering projects. Volatiles are the fuel
and solar sails or ion engines are the propulsion. It
may take years or decades to position the habitats. I
would think terraforming Venus will be ultimately
easier on human physiology.
