A Roche model for describing uniformly rotating rings is presented and the
results are compared with numerical solutions to the full problem for
polytropic rings. In the thin ring limit, the surfaces of constant pressure
including the surface of the ring itself are given in analytic terms, even in
the mass-shedding case.
