Would changing the core material from wood to foam cause problems with
this method?  If the glass takes all the stress, then wouldn't foam be
easier
to manufacture (I don't have access to a CNC but I do have a hot wire saw.)

You need high density foam so I don't know how eazy that would be to cut
with a hot wire.
