Finding such a container might make it easier to make, since A) you could use 2 or three rings whole, B) the plastic is already round, and C) the jugs might be readily available and essentially free.

Can you interlock the whole rings as the orbit balls are interlocked? I haven't attempted to see the interlocking pattern because I don't want to break any of them.
