Until fairly recently bricks were typically 2"x 4"x 8". The earliest brick buildings in this country had very narrow mortar lines, but those laid in the past 100 years or so often have 1/2" mortar lines. I also question the wisdom of wood brick material. -Wes

I would like to know what you think would be the best actual size of laser cuts that would best suit for bricks on walls, chimneys and so forth. I am afraid that the fine lines for using scale 3.5 inch by 8 inch groves may be to close for finishing with paints and such. Thoughts??
