A quick Google shows 6.25e+34 plank lengths in a meter. So, seems impossible to measure and make the mark.

Edit: As a fraction of appended ascii codes.

And if the mark were instead the removal of a single atom in a 40cm length, the resolution would be even poorer.. able to encode a single 30 bit number by my very rough calculation.
