About the brick machine

• With a Brick Machine, you can make Bricks, Wet Firebricks or Wet Clay Bricks.
• It makes the bricks in batches of 6. Bricks can be removed and raw materials may be added while the Brick Machine is running
• You can increase the output speed via tuning with the Mechanics skill and by installing a Springbox.

Note: Installed a 9221 springbox and still getting 6 bricks in 45 seconds - Zotep 3 October 2013

Standard version (non-upgraded)

• Capacity: You can load it up with mats for up to 300 bricks at a time.
• Speed: It makes bricks at a rate of 300 bricks per ~40 minutes.

Upgraded version

• Capacity: You can load it up with mats for up to 900 bricks at a time.
• Speed: same as non-upgraded? Thus 900 bricks in ~2 hours? (not confirmed yet)
  • I measured my upgraded brick machine as doing 6 bricks every 45 teppyseconds, which is consistent with this. --Inkoaten 22:44, 6 May 2009 (EST)

Note: The skill Structure Reinforcement is needed in order to upgrade a brick machine.

Note: On 1/31/2012 Telanoc announced that a 2nd level of Structure Reinforcement can 'further' update the base and hopper.
