It doesn't have the same look as many of the other Homelite saws so I'm wondering if this was maybe made by someone else and badged by Homelite. It has a 1997 label on it. I can't upload pics. Thank you #Post#: 36660-------------------------------------------------- Re: Homelite 10790, tell me about it By: Chainsawrepair Date: March 14, 2014, 12:29 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Is it that red with yellow pull handle saw?

Found a way to get it to my pc from Craigslist. Looking at your pic, this just looks like an older version of the same saw. Maybe nothing special after all. I bought a Craftsman for $100 about 5 years ago and just recently found out that it is actually a Redmax GZ4000. Mac, Troybilt, and Ryobi also had saws that were the Redmax GZ4000 re-badged with their own names. Just wondered if maybe I'd stumbled across a similar saw again. Oh well. #Post#: 36670-------------------------------------------------- Re: Homelite 10790, tell me about it By: Chainsawrepair Date: March 14, 2014, 1:46 pm --------------------------------------------------------- That looks like the MTD Troy-bilt china made saw IMO. Dont know for sure though. #Post#: 36681-------------------------------------------------- Re: Homelite 10790, tell me about it By: 660magnum Date: March 14, 2014, 4:20 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I had one of these back 15 years ago [URL= (HTM) http://smg.photobucket.com/user/jamesirl/media/Xv64428-1.jpg.html][img<br />width=700 height=525] (HTM) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/jamesirl/Xv64428-1.jpg[/img][/URL] And a couple years later I also had one of these [URL= (HTM) http://smg.photobucket.com/user/jamesirl/media/Gb90274-1.jpg.html][img<br />width=700 height=525] (HTM) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/jamesirl/Gb90274-1.jpg[/img][/URL] They were made in China and there is nothing in the way of super performance from them. Never had any trouble and they still run just fine in someone else's hands but are just not the chainsaw like a plastic Stihl 025 is but they didn't cost that much either. I paid $100 each for mine at pawn shops when almost new and they looked like they had only made a cut or two. *****************************************************
