What is the best way to create a ring yourself? Multiple VM’s or a different wallet for each ring, or Docker or something.

Interesting question, but I don't get where is going, what will be used for? Why have to be in VM or dockers?

Maybe those aren’t needed, thinking of the most efficient way to have say 10 private channels of my own before opening others

But what for those 10 channels? And with which peers? Between 2 of your testing nodes? If you need quick testing LN nodes, you can always use Rizful nodes (https://rizful.com). These are perfect for this testing scenario.
Or... Put a central BTC core node on a local machine with neutrino activated, then spin up 2-3 LND nodes in the same LAN and point to your local neutrino BTC core node. Done, you have built in few minutes a local lightning "private" network.
