Do I see demand for parts other than blades? Yes. Below is a link to an ORNL case study of EB additive manufacturing of aerospace brackets. See page 19 as numbered on the document or "pdf page 5." Published March 2013. Click on "insert-text-here". I don't know why these links don't show addresses.

"EBM technology is a suitable additive manufacturing technology to produce complex aerospace components, such as the BALD bracket. As deposited and HIPed brackets have
consistent mechanical properties regardless of location or orientation within the build chamber, meeting the ASTM specification for wrought Ti-6Al-4V material for yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, and elongation. Component testing also satisfied the required mechanical performance for nonflight-critical hardware. Numerous brackets can be placed into the build chamber at various locations and orientations to maximize the production rate without sacrificing component quality. A simple cost analysis shows that EBM technology provides a 50% cost reduction over the current production method. Additional certification
will be required prior to full production."
