Fusion 360 Hangs trying to do boundary fill on a specific model

I am trying to create a mold to create a silicone product. I have created the model of the product (I've attached the image below) As you can see, it has a lot of complicated curves. I started on the mold and was able to create the outer shell of the mold just fine, but I need to create a boundary fill to create the inner shell. When I try to do this Fusion hangs as soon as I select the object as the tool. Fusion was crashing every time I worked on the model, even trying to rotate it. I turned off auto-project edges in the settings and reduced the precision in the settings (kind of sucks to have to use one digit precision for angles and 3 for distances but I'll deal for now). This seemed to resolve the crashes just working with the model, but it still hangs when trying to perform certain operations, such as Boundary Fill.

 

This is what it looks like right now. I have seen it do this for a long time then return after it finishes crunching numbers but it has been about 10 minutes and I am still waiting for it to either return or crash (so no crash logs yet. I'll add them if it does).

Any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance,
