I'm making sun-dried mud bricks, though, and I'll just patch if they crack. I've got plenty of material.
Make a mud slurry with the clay and slap it on. Repeat as required.
I can promise you that the Mestizos don't go to a lot of trouble making their bricks. It's not high-tech.

ok, thanks. Sounds like he can just go ahead and make one and save us thousands of dollars ;)
