Shell Command Not Working

[derek.saulQEQAU]

Hi, I have two bodies (two halves of a case) that the shell command will not work on. I've searched the warnings that it returns on here but I still cannot figure it out. The warnings I'm getting are: 

The body could not be repaired after deleting faces.
Try changing the selection, or use the Delete tool in the Patch workspace to delete geometry without repairing the gap.

And...

The operation would cause a large topology change.
Try adjusting the values or changing the input geometry.

Here are the files in question.

Given the multiple warnings and errors in the timeline of these designs, I would recommend you address those before attempting to shell these objects.

If you remove all the small fillets and the text, then shelling should work.

Should I shell before adding in the fillets? 

[TrippyLighting · Accepted solution]

Yes.

That did the trick. Thank you!!
