With multiple warnings and errors in the timeline, I'd recommend starting fresh.  Whenever you see a yellow warning or red error in the timeline, you should stop and fix them immediately.  They can lead to errors further down the timeline.

Moving the Timeline back to where the individual surfaces were created should allow you to use the Thicken command, however (  @jeff_strater  ), Fusion 360 hangs.

 

Note: @Anonymous The Thicken command should give you the same result as the Shell command for this model.

I would look at this area first.

I would probably use "overbuild" surfaces and then trim back to avoid this "pinch".
