Channel 2 mm deep, edge 6 mm thick, after trimming the edge to 5mm, there should be 3-4 mm of material under the purfling. How deep should I go? Does the depth create the so called hinge effect?

Check again. .50"/.500" = 1/2". Do you mean .050" and .030"? Missing a zer0?
.050" is like a G string or so in diameter and .030" is like a high C string.
