It's simple, take a random tool (wrench, buff hammer, Moonshine etc), component (Hulll armour, balloon, main engine etc), ammo (Lesmok, Lochnagar, Greased etc) or ship (Pyramidion, Mobula, Galleon etc) and reverse it's purpose.
I'll start: Spyglass: press M1 to unmark ships, use the scroll key to zoom out three times. A max of -4 targest can be unmarked.
