I typically lose about 0.06" for each cut after I sand off the saw marks, so starting with a 0.22" thickness would give me two at 0.08" if everything was perfect. The problem is that 0.06" I lose isn't always exactly centered, so I'd probably end up with one at 0.06" and one at 0.10", and have to thin it down to match the other.
I'd say the piece you started with was a little thin, you'd have to have a pretty good saw and pretty good technique to make it work.

Hey Rodger. Thanks for that. I was really thinking this was a key problem for a resaw novice. Luckily I have two pieces 0.22" thick so I can use good ones from each piece (I hope).
Cool. Sam
