Resawn Borg lumber will often cup due to residual stresses

You don't want residual stresses in your propeller. *If you
eschew resawing and plane all the way down from full
thickness, plane equal amounts from each side to
minimize cupping.

You can also get more (and probably better) advice
from rec.woowdorking, er, rec.woodworking.
