Just in case anyone needs a cheap way to get a rag...
I've bought about 30 meters of synthetic lining cloth - very light-weight, very durable and bright orange, of course. Since the cloth is 1,5 m wide, it is enough to make approximately 750 rags 30х20 cm. But of course, we will not stop at minimum size! We will make queen-sized and king-sized rags! 30х40 cm looks much better than 30х20!
And there is a chance that we will have enough cloth left for great orange flags for huge tanks and other [enemy] vehicles.
The only drawback of the cloth is that the thin silk-like thread would get fluffed up along the edges. To avoid this we apply a burning lighter or a match to scorch the edges and make them hard. After that the rag becomes perfectly usable.
Well, anyway. I've made my calculations and it appears that each 30x40 cm rag costs me about 1 Swedish crown. I am not going to make profit on fellow airsofters, so you can count on that price. Send a pm to me and we will arrange a pre-game meeting.

It's generally a good idea to bring a rag at least twice the size of what you need, so if one of your team mates loses his in the woods you can just cut yours in half and share it
And as Mishka said, a larger rag is more visible.
