bug when hollowing a Loft

In my project, the shell operation is failing, saying:

Is this a bug, an unimplemented feature, or am I doing something wrong.

Here's my document.

Thanks!

    Your document is view only so I can't inspect it. but if your trying to shell your loft, you will need to have that cleaned up as its got some "ugly" to it. Probably have to play with connections on it.

    Sorry abt that. I made it public.

    What do you mean "play with connections"?

    Like this. It still doesn't like the shell thoough. geometry is too tight near the bottom

    If you increase your sketch 5 dimension to 2.1 it will help avoid the tight bend at the bottom and allow you to shell up to .25 thick depending on the result of using connections on the loft.
