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
According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
