In todays video we take a look at the Exclude Object feature that was added to Klipper. This allows you to cancel a failing part from the bed while still allowing the rest of the parts to complete. We will go over how to set it up, how to use it, and run a print to see it in action.

Copy\Paste For Exclude Module:

[exclude_object]

[file_manager]
enable_object_processing: True

ModBot is the most underrated YouTube channel I'm following. You deserve more subscribers and viewers

Thanks for making me aware of that feature again and for showing greatly how it works!

[DarrenGerbrandt]

I kind of knew about it and had thought about checking into it more "at some point" but did not know it was so easy to enable until your video. I don't do a lot of batch parts but I do occasionally and having this enabled will be a great help. Thanks.

I am loving your videos about Klipper - I just started my Klipper journey and your content is awesome 👏

This is one of the cooler features available in the various firmwares. The fellow who first brought it to us for Marlin Firmware is a chemistry professor who also makes excellent turned wooden bowls. I used his concept as the starting point for CANCEL_OBJECTS and created the G-code M486 (get it?) to provide a formal support mechanism. The slicer has to actually provide the object identifiers in the G-code to use this technique. Perhaps Klipper is able to do this without help from the slicer, or using other slicer annotations that only appear in the G-code file as comments.

Hi, i add the command as you show in the video but i dont have the option to cancel an object during the print.
i try with cura 5.4 and prusa 2.6 but stil it cannot work

[woodwaker]

I had heard about this, but at the time was too busy to pursue. I also rarely print a large number of parts that would benefit from this. Your explanation made it so easy to understand and set up, that I will be adding it to my printers and Prusa Slicer will be changed immediately. Thanks for the concise video

[shawnrathbone]

Thanks, had no clue that this was available

[oldtimeengineer]

I have been using that feature for over 1 month or more on my Creality K1 units I love it.

[JasonKuehn]

Been using klipper for about a year and had no idea. Thanks for sharing!

[federicobarrezueta]

great info, tried from other sources and was not able to make it work.Never thought it was so simple..great vid thanks!

[CourtRoss]

Well, I'm setting this up today. Thanks for the video. Also, that beard is looking fantastic!

[steveu]

I didn't know about this feature but always thought this sort of thing would be useful, Just installed it, Thanks for sharing.

[LordRaky]

I was already using this feature, but thanks to this video i indirectly learned how to set up the filename format so i don't have to rename it myself every time, thanks ModBot

[zviper]

Thanks man! was thinking about this feature last night while watching one of my parts fail. Just got the exclude module feature installed! thanks Daniel

[JoshMurrah]

I wasn't aware this made it to the main fork! Nice! I've heard that Cura doesn't handle well with supports, since it does supports as its' own object at the beginning of each layer.

[MrElbowgrease]

wow awesome feature, never knew this existed. Glad to have it up and running. Thanks for the pro tips!

[kevinbaxter]

hey bud you got a awesome channel here. I recently built a Voron2.4. Had zero issues with the build. Lotsa people are build friendly but not software friendly. Seems like you want views so why not keep helping others that are not software savvy. Gonna def try this on SS with mainsail. Never printed anything b4 this build. Don't have anyone to help either. Be very helpful to me and others if your channel could include this content. Although I have SS I have yet to find a SS for dummies vid. LOL. Still looking how to configure it to what i need AND my settings and have a saved profile. YOU are much more smarter then me maybe give some klipper configs to look at? Wasted lotsa Hrs on trying to figure out simple things with zero references. That said THANK YOU AGAIN

[Mett-wtxj]

Awesome! Been waiting for this. I had no idea this was available.

[damustermann]

How about doing the same with Fluidd? Klipper setup is of course the same, but so it is a more complete guide for this feature. Would be awesome as a reference, no fuss, just a perfect guide, thanks for what you did already, and thanks if you do the Fluidd part, too.
