Performax Drum Sanders, How Old?

[richard poitras]

Does anyone know how many years now that Performax sanders have been out of business? I know Jet and SuperMax took over Performax.

Thanks

IIRC it was in the early 2000's that Jet bought Performax and I also believe that Performax and Supermax were part of the same company.

Thanks Gene as I have a lead on a 10/20 drum sander and was just wondering about its age.

I bought my 16-32 in 2006-7ish and it was still branded Performax.
