West Coast Man
Welcome to West Coast Man (Formerly Kearney Creek Farm)
I’m a licensed commercial/industrial electrician with over 30 years experience in the trade, DIYer, and farmer living in rural Pacific Northwest. Here you’ll find hands-on tool reviews (especially Harbor Freight, Klein, Knipex), maintenance tips, and behind-the-scenes farm work, all from a blue collar perspective.
If you're into tradesman skills, everyday carry (EDC), preparedness, livestock care, shop organization, or just want honest takes from someone who actually uses the gear, you're in the right place.
I post shorts, vlogs, and full-length videos weekly. Hit subscribe and come think, build, and grow with me.

Boss came into the shop and caught me sweeping. I apologize to my fellow electricians for being a poor example of our trade. Please forgive me.😄

90's nostalgia. They're so old they were made in the USA.😄

Electrician by trade… professional filing cabinet assembler by request.
Anyone else ever get asked to do something way outside your trade on a job?

Anyone else rely on Ebay to swap out 50 year old components? 😄
This controls a melting pot at work.

If you caught my last video, I picked up a Wiha precision screwdriver to add to the custom Kaiweets Packout. I think it turned out pretty cool. Still have to add the spare battery case.

In my continuing quest to lighten my work EDC, I finally got ahold of the Klein K12075 hybrid strippers to compare to the Klein J215-9CRTP hybrids. I was mostly curious about how wide the jaws are on each of them. Looks like the K12075 are about 3/8" wide and the J215-9CRTP are about 5/8" wide.
Time to put the K12075 into rotation to see if they can perform whatever task I'm up against at work.
