Elon Musk's Boring Company (https://www.boringcompany.com/faq/) will sell bricks too.
Anyway, the deal is that part of what makes boring very slow is that the dirt displaced by the tunnel has to be removed. Musk’s bricks are made by compressing that dirt at high pressures, plus a little bit of concrete. “And then you have bricks that are rated for California seismic loads,” Musk said.
He is excited about selling the bricks, for “like 10 cents a brick or something like that,” he told the crowd. “And they’re really great bricks. You can, like, build houses with them and things.” He prefers them to cinderblocks, which is “rough and grainy;” Musk bricks are “incredibly smooth.” And then, Musk launches into a paean to the bricks, which he views as incomparable: “These are bricks that are way better than any bricks I’ve ever seen at a construction site.” They can be, for affordable housing, “really compelling.”
