I'm having problem with step 42. I cannot find the loose paper to fold out.
Anyone having this problem.

Also, how big is the paper you're using?
The top part seems to be too small to fold properly even on a nine inch square.

Thanks

I've always hated that part of the model. In step 42 you're unsinking the paper around the pleated inner point. I'd suggest unfolding the model for those steps and the next ones with sinks till you get past step 52. For complex models I usually use a 12 inch sheet.
