Paper Roller
This cylinder was part of one of the paper machines in Thomas Tait's paper mills, once an important employer in Inverurie. It has a mass of 30 tonnes, and is made of polished granite. An information board says that the granite was sourced in Finland because it has a higher silica content than the local granites. This makes sense because the other common minerals in granite, such as mica and feldspar, are less resistant to erosion than quartz, which is almost pure silica. These minerals would wear out of the surface and create pocks and thus unevenness on the surface of the roller.
