Did you try selecting the part to hollow? If it won't shell it will be because of the proximity of the holes to the edges.Senior Director, Technical Services, EMEA1

@meg_brown, I don't know how large your part is but the shell thickness may be a factor as well. Try reducing the shell thickness.

Please take a look at Part studio 2, this could be a way to do this.
Are you sure about the size??
And I think it is much easier to import an image into a sketch and trace the image in Onshape, and with entering the first dimension the total sketch will resize to the proper dimension.
