You might need to explain yourself better. What type of FT you mean? What number of points? What number of levels?

For an 8 point FT of 3 levels I use a square of 8 in (20 cm) on the side.

For an 8 point 5 level FT I use a 28 in (70 cm) on the side.

I mean 12 - point FT. There should be at least 4 stages.

I did four stages with copy paper- not saying it turned out perfect- but it certainly worked. Chris Plamer's largest tower consisted of 6 stages and used a 6 foot paper, if that gives you any idea of how large it should be?

For this 12 point 5 level one, I used a 70 cm (28 in) on the side square:

I think you're just trolling. I can't believe it's been almost a year since you started this thread (although I see you've posted under two different accounts) and you haven't folded it just because you lack that information (that if you had read the thread you'd already knew).
