I work at a newsprint mill. We only carry two rolls in split arm clamps. Winding tolerances for paper rolls means you can have different diameters and if the top roll is even slightly larger than the bottom you risk dropping the bottom roll. If the bottom roll is larger diameter then the top roll will not be clamped in a single arm clamp and is simply riding on the bottom one - an accident waiting to happen.

Fact of the week
The word "okay" (or its abbreviation "OK") originated as a humorous misspelling. In the 1830s, a fad in Boston involved using abbreviations of intentionally misspelled phrases. "OK" stood for "oll korrect," a playful mispronunciation of "all correct".
