Put dimensions and constraints in the sketch and use same thickness in the whole sketch.
Also be sure to enter sheet metal rules for the thickness of your sheet.
Good luck

Problem 2
Your part is not uniform thickness, but sheet metal requirement is uniform thickness.

Problem 4 - you are doing too much work, get lazy.
Edit Sketch1 and notice only one side open profile needed.
