A creative workshop in Bell Green, Lewisham

xTool WonderPress at PM Makerspace

A heat press with a wider creative system around it.

At PM Makerspace, we use the xTool WonderPress dual-station heat press to apply garment transfers. The wider WonderPress system also has interchangeable modules for other making processes—but those modules are not all part of our workshop setup.

One system, different creative processes

Explore the WonderPress modules

The WonderPress system is built around three interchangeable modules: the Heat Press Module, Craft Oven Module and 3D Form Module. Some of the activities below are modes within a module, rather than separate attachments.

02MODULE

Craft Oven Module

A removable oven-style module for compatible heat-curing and craft-baking processes. xTool describes uses including DTF film curing, suitable polymer clay and shrink-plastic crafts, dried flowers and acrylic heat bending.

It provides a separate controlled heating process; it does not apply a transfer to a garment.

03PROCESS · CRAFT OVEN

DTF Film Curing

In a DTF workflow, printed film is coated with adhesive powder and cured before the transfer is applied. The Craft Oven Module supports curing suitable DTF film; the Heat Press Module then transfers the prepared design onto a garment.

Curing prepares the film. Heat pressing applies the transfer. They are separate stages.

04MODE · 3D FORM

Vacuum Forming

The 3D Form Module heats a suitable plastic sheet and uses vacuum to draw it over a mould. That can support creative forms such as shallow display shells, decorative covers or shaped product details.

These are possible applications, not projects tested or demonstrated by PM Makerspace.

05MODE · 3D FORM

3D Sublimation

The 3D Form Module uses vacuum with printed sublimation film to wrap designs around compatible coated or polymer objects. xTool gives examples such as phone cases, badges and keycaps; suitable shapes, materials and support fixtures matter.

This extends sublimation beyond flat pressing. We have not recorded this process as available or tested at our makerspace.
