Adjusting fins on the diffuser part

Im currently working on the design of the turbojet engine that is custom built, and Im going to get the files ready for CNC for "Proof of Concept" for now, but I am trying to make the diffuser look right.
I attached two screenshots, one shows the top view of the diffuser (unmarked) and the other one shows the diffuser from the bottom plane (marked up). I used the chamfer feature to thin out blades at the bottom but I realized that it did not quite work right because I want the tips of the blades to be equally thin (instead it made the tips thinner on the edge where it connects to the part.
Additionally, I am trying to add a little "bend" to the tip of that fin to direct air flow in the circular direction but it does not work the right way or does not work at all.
Link to the file (I made a copy of it specifically for reddit as well) : https://cad.onshape.com/documents/6dcd84e8413660d2b76f09fa
Thank you sincerely whoever can help!

Try using loft feature with guides and three cross-sections (Start, middle and end) this will solve your issue if i understand your issue correctly 😅
(Also, your link is not working)
Can you provide an image that might show an example of what your trying to do?
Is this kinda what you're looking for?
