Outer Shell fail

I'm trying to outer shell a duct, but it fails. I think it's because some regions are too small, but I'm not sure how to fix this. Link to the doc is @ https://cad.onshape.com/documents/14f3d01d62b5237f728896c5/w/40e0afc950b8ca0dfecf9ef8/e/8c473ae13c752e424f8b5051.
I can do an inner shell just fine, but then it blocks the fan opening.

@shai_perednik Looking at your situation a little closer... if you want to offset faces out by 1.5 mm you will have to create better geometry using the loft command - as you alluded to.5

Thank you for adding that move face @ .2. While this helps, that offset should be 1.5, but that fails. 1mm for the offset works, but it creates these "wings". Which are created, I believe because of the loft. I probably should be lofting with guides, but can't figure out what plane to draw my guides on. Thank you!
