This is an imported Mesh Body, not a solid body.

You could convert it to a solid body, but with geometry this simple - I recommend that you recreate it from scratch using only Fusion 360 (no import of stl).

I agree with @TheCADWhisperer, use his supplied model and keep the STL out of this project.  I took his supplied box and added the text bodies to it so it is now only one body.  I must emphasis some of the text, particularly the "As" have some issues.  I could not identify the font so I did not modify the text at all, just combined it with the model supplied by @TheCADWhisperer .  It is attached.

 

By the way, it is not a good idea to "piggyback" your forum question on top of an old forum post.  It just gets lost in the shuffle and does not get the needed attention.  Create you own post next time you have a question, they do not cost anything.

@TheCADWhisperer @jhackney1972 thank you very much, really appreciate it. I'm new to it all slowly but surely getting the hang of everything there's a lot to learn haha...
