Willards Tipper Trimmer blade replacement?

[Rip]

How many tips would you normally trim before replacing the blade?

Anyone with a Willards out there in AZB land?

I have been getting six or eight tip trims per blade. less if I change a break tip.

Anyone know if the blades can be purchased in quantity from a supplier other than Mueller's and other billiards suppliers?
UPDATE: I found the replacement blades at Dick Blick Art Supplies.

I'm Pretty sure Mueller's bought out Willard. I know they bought out Porper.
