Issue Making My Box Lid

Hey All,
Hope i can get a little help here to figure out why my box lid isn’t working quite right. I’ve already made my box bottom using the following file. I’m now trying to make my box lid but I keep ending up with a lip around the edge in the simulation. Any thoughts on how I can go about removing it? I suspect I’ve screwed something up with my corner radius. Thanks in advance.

In ‘boxtop’, you want ‘Contour Toolpath 3’ to be a pocket instead. Select the two ‘edges’ and do a pocket operation, it will remove the material between the two edges.

I added an extra boundary that is a bit outside of the boxtop, so the pocket operation will slightly overcut.
