These fins are supposed to stop at the rim, but one side just keeps going. Is this an error in the source file, or did I do something wrong?

I've used Inventor and Fusion360 for small personal projects since 2014. In an instance like this, I would just draw a quick 2d shape off of the front face in your picture and cut it. Sometimes it's just not worth the time to figure out. Are you modeling professionally?

No, just hobby stuff around the house. I normally use FreeCAD on Linux, so I'm not used to all the controls for F360.
