XL Modular Rectangle Plate Press

Modular Plate Press System

Create an endless variety of handbuilt plates with this modular 3D printed plate press system.

This listing is for the XL size only. Pick any XL border and choose whether you need the XL base with it. You only need one XL base – it works with every XL rectangle border. Want every size? Get the Sm/Md/Lg/XL option on our main Modular Rectangle Plate Press listing.

This set is NOT compatible with our original plate presses.

XL Base Size

• 280.5 x 144.5 mm

XL Border Sizes

• Thin: 305 x 172 mm
• Thick: 325 x 190 mm
• Small Petal: 325 x 193 mm
• Large Petal: 325 x 185 mm
• Small Wave: 320 x 184 mm
• Large Wave: 325 x 181 mm

Measured across the outside edge of each border – this is roughly the size of your finished plate before drying and firing.

All XL rectangle border designs fit the XL rectangle base. XL pieces need a large build plate, such as a Bambu A2L (330x320 mm).

Perfect for creating dinnerware, dessert plates, trinket dishes, catchalls, serving pieces, soap dishes, and more while keeping your plate sizes consistent.

How to Use

1. Roll out a slab of clay, compress surface.
2. Cut the clay using the outer frame.
3. Place the slab onto a piece of foam and cover it with plastic.
4. Use the outer frame to help align and center the inner press before pressing it into the clay to form the rim.

The foam allows the clay to move naturally, creating a smooth, even profile without stretching or tearing.

Choosing Your Options

This listing uses product variants.

Before adding the item to your cart, make sure you have selected:

• ✔ Border – one XL border, or the XL bundle
• ✔ Base – With Base if you don't have the XL base yet, Without Base if you do

The XL Rectangle Bundle comes with the XL base and every XL border.

Notes

• Each mold is 3D printed, so slight layer lines or minor surface variations are normal and do not affect performance.
• Final plate dimensions may vary slightly depending on your clay body, slab thickness, forming method, and firing shrinkage.
• Please note that the petals can be difficult to work with as they are more likely to crack. To reduce cracking, do not stack until after bisque, do not put excess pressure on petals, compress slab thoroughly, dry slowly
