Can you cut wood with a Glowforge?

What is the difference between Light and Medium Plywood for Glowforge?

Light Plywood has a thinner construction and a hardwood core, which makes it lighter and faster to cut than Medium Plywood. It’s great for speed-focused projects, but may be less suitable for very delicate details like living hinges due to directional strength.
