Hello,
Some diodes from the 1N5400 series might work.
The 1N5401 is rated for 70 Volts RMS and 3 Ampere.
An higher number like 1N5407 can also be used.

Hello,
I would say all power carrying lines shoud be wider.
So the in and output lines of the inverter, the drain and source lines of the mosfets and the ground lines for the mosfets.
