In Medieval times, workers would knead clay, place it in a wooden mold, and then remove the brick-shaped clay from the mold. Shape Wooden brick molds were rectangular and four-sided, with no base or lid. They were placed on the ground or on a brickmaker's table. Production Bricks made on the ground are usually from before the 19th century and are known as "place" bricks. In the 19th century, a smaller rectangular block of wood was screwed onto the table to create the brick's "frog". Industrial Revolution The Industrial Revolution increased production capacity, which decreased the cost of construction and manufacturing. By the 1920s, brick-making machines could produce up to 12,000 bricks per day. Reuse Vintage wooden brick molds can be repurposed as storage or display boxes, or as shelving.
