Do they remain on the ruler and if so how long do they last ? Do you have to replace them every time you cut fabric ?

Yes, they stay on the ruler. It's not glue but that kind of tacky rubber surface that just clings, like the stuff they use for window cling-ons. I've had mine on for a year and they haven't budged.

They last a long time if you are careful - I only replaced my last one because I pushed on one corner too hard, bending it and stopping sand paper sticking properly. Would have been a few years old.

In my usage I find you can keep using them probably 6 months or longer and I only use on one area at a time. Hope this helps you!!

Mine have lasted and are one of the best things I ever bought. I have one pair for my mattress cover and one pair for my fitted sheets.

You can use them many times until they wear out. I have had no issue with multiple uses.

They last a long time. I am not sure how long but a long time. I rinse mine daily and I would guess it last years. It is used up when the foil eventually separates from the Frame.

They stay on fairly long if you make sure to embed them deep in the polish and make sure the surface below is as flat as possible. I've only lost one out of the four times I've used them.

Work fine. Cheaper than rollers. Replacement frequency (wear) is dependent upon how well you have blade adjusted, your technique when cutting, and wood species. I haven't needed to replace mine after a year. No special blade finish required.

I have reused mine several times already. Unless they get torn or permanently creased I can't see them needing to be replaced or thrown away.

All die cuts will...some more than others...they'll bend over time...either way you'll have to replace them...great product

The cloths are machine washable, so you can wash them after each use. They are made of a thin, towel-like fabric and seem pretty durable. I haven't replaced any in the 6 months or so that I've had them.

I'm sure they would last beyond a year. I've had mine for maybe 6-8 months and some have changed shape a little, but otherwise they are all perfectly fine!

They last at least 4-5 seasons or more for me; if you place them carefully where the cedar can properly protect clothing, towels, sheets, etc., you should have no problem with them lasting an extremely long time. As long as you continue to smell the cedar, the protection will always be there.

No is short answer. Mine after all this time are just now not sharp enough for fabric...took that long...as far as I know the scissors have not been made for years and I intend on getting more while still available...I should say, they were already discontinued for a while before I bought mine on same advice from friend, get them while you can...and GLAD I did

Yes. They're not pointed like sewing scissors, but they're not flat-tipped either. Ezlypist's description matches my experience, with two pairs, BTW.

As far as more available tips. You will get a sheet that is in the packaging from the original manufacture that more available tips that you can order. And as far as the tips that are provided , I still haven't gone through them yet and it's been quite a while since I've had this thing. I suppose it would make a difference as far as how long they will last depending on the material your using as a back drop to cut your stencils with. Hope this helps... :-)

yes - in fact i'm thinking of buying some new ones - I have used them for about 3 yrs and they're getting kind of dirty inside and i'm sure if i wash them - all the labeling will come off. Figure for the price, they've lasted a long time.
