Suppose you want to send in the mail a valuable object to a friend. You have a box which is big enough to hold the object. The box has a locking ring which is large enough to have a lock attached and you have several locks with keys. However, your friend does not have the key to any lock that you have. You cannot send the key in an unlocked box since it may be stolen or copied. How do you send the valuable object, locked, to your friend - so it may be opened by your friend???

Send the box with a lock attached and locked. Your friend attaches his or her own lock and sends the box back to you. You remove your lock and send it back to your friend. Your friend may then remove the lock she or he put on and open the box.

send the item locked;
call your friend and give him/her the combination to the lock; because:
1. you have locks with keys (that is given) and your friend does not have any keys to your locks (that is given)
2. so you have to purchase a lock with a set of numbers as the combination...mail the item locked...call your friend and give them the numbered combination
