I believe Homer had one of these -

I looked in to it once before and appears to fit almost any press and allows you to use existing screens and squeegees.  The other ones, including the Workhorse require a complete setup, from had platens, to hat screens, to hat squeegees. 

Maybe Homer will chime in.

Shawn, here's a video on how the Hat Champ works -

I borrowed one from my buddies shop once, matter of fact I can snag it whenever I want (we borrow stuff back and forth) but those hat champ plattens are too small for what my customers want, they want most of the face of a trucker hat covered. I have been printing transfers and heat pressing them, but if I can skip the extra steps with a hat attachment that would be great.

Got ya.  The only one's I've done so far are transfers and few and far between.
