Use quality clay and fuel, eg. use good bonesaw to cut high-quality boards from good trees and fuel with them.

Need for High Quality

Fuel (tree)
- Require Clay for pot
- Require Water (Tree)
- Soil for Tree
- Possibly require bone and branch for saw

Kiln
- Require Clay

Brick
- Require Clay
- Require Kiln

With fuel above q36 you will actually push the brick q beyond 36. No skills play role in the actual brick burning part, but carpentry is involved in making planks, and survival in making the bone saw. A good saw (say, one made with bear bone) is going to make boards higher than the tree q, provided you have sufficient carpentry.
