I know people are always iffy to talk about financials, but once this house is finished I would love to hear a price breakdown of what this all cost you vs actually buying a house, and the man hours you put into it. Has been super interesting watching you do this build so far and can’t wait for what else you have to do.

Crane: it's been a wild ride. I've built a lot of commercial stuff, but the story really starts after this guy Andrew bought me. That was a trip. We built a castle and I ended up crashing at the bottom of a hill. Then this guy rescued me and things have kinda smoothed out a bit.

Modern concrete will last about 100 years if properly cared for. (It's basically cheap shit compared to the stuff the Romans used.) That said, I don't know how well concrete encased in ICFs will last. It should, in theory, be more resilient to weathering, but that might not be true for ICFs underground because the external insulation will be susceptible to insect damage - which in turn will lead to the normal decay from temperature variations and water intrusion.

Have the kids hand hammer a strip with a rubber or rawhide mallet. Hem both edges and fold just greater than 90 degrees. Slip it into that saw cut you described. It'll be beautiful for many decades and the kids will always be able to take pride in the help they provided.

Won't the concrete react to the copper in a bad way? That's why we always sleave concrete for copper pipes and tubing going through or resting on concrete. I'm thinking about fuel oil tubing from a tank to the heating appliance. Lead isn't real pretty, but it enjoys co-habiting with concrete.

Might I suggest at the next pour have a 3x3x12 form somewhere out of the way where in future you can bolt your rebar bender, tubing benders and other assorted tools that need anchorage. Tire changers that kind of thing. You can drill and put a variety of threaded inserts for many different tools. A short bolt in each anchor keeps the dirt out until needed as well as water and ice. Bury it in the ground to the top.
