What would you like to do, make the stock larger, or move all the features over inside the stock?

Couple of comment, if you're open to some feedback?

1) You don't need to put each letter on it's own sketch, this could have all been done as one sketch, it would make it easier to modify in this case

2) you have some lost references, take care to keep these to a minimum:

I recommend that you start over from scratch using what was learned from this attempt.

Fully define your sketches.

Yes, fully define sketches, but I wouldn't necessarily insist that they start over. Consider this a learning moment and gain some experience from this mistake. Go to each sketch and just edit the position of the entities, adding proper constraints. The end goal is to have EVERY sketch entity turned black. Anything blue indicates that it's lacking constraints.

You don't have to start from scratch - because I did it for you (see Attached).
