Yeah.....
I don't know how you can hold the mandrel+cane, the thread and the caliper at the same time while you're tying...

I've been using a Mitsutoyo Dial caliper (graded to 0.05mm) similar to your picture except it has a dial instead of the vernier. Measuring from the bottom of the staple makes sense, but of course measuring from the top of the folded cane is ludicrous: sometimes bark gets in the way and cane fibers can go wild.

But once the bottom has been tied about 5-10 winds -- of course I've finished moving the cane around -- then it is easy to drop the thread (pinching it with the same hand that's holding the cane in place) to do the pencil mark which will now stay in place.
