Abstract: A method for assembling a vehicle is provided. The method includes: applying a first set of magnets to a first set of predefined positions on a first surface of a first structural component of the vehicle; applying a second set of magnets to a second set of predefined positions on a first surface of a second structural component of the vehicle; preparing a second surface of the first structural component for bonding the first structural component to the second structural component; applying a bonding material to the prepared second surface of the first structural component; positioning a second surface of the second structural component against the bonding material on the prepared second surface of the first structural component; and removing the first set of magnets from the first surface of the first structural component and the second set of magnets from the first surface of the second structural component.

Abstract: A self-charging modular portable survival drone that recharges by natural elements is disclosed. The self-charging modular portable survival drone is capable of conventionally charging other devices, performing remote flight operations, and signaling for help. The natural elements include wind and water. The self-charging modular portable survival drone is configured to rapidly and repeatedly charge mobile battery units stored in ducted fan assemblies. The ducted fan assemblies can be used to charge personal electronic devices and power remote flight operations via modular drone. The self-charging modular portable survival drone can be used to signal for help using onboard high-output LEDs during SOS flight operations. The self-charging modular portable survival drone can further be used, during SOS flight operations, to broadcast current GPS coordinates over local search and rescue bands.

Abstract: A support that prevents beavers and other animals from constructing dams which block culverts associated with ponds and streams. The support includes a rectangular floating device covered with solar electrically charged mesh wire. The support is anchored so as to be able to rise and fall as the level of the waters rise and fall.
