Well, if this is to be believed https://www.hindawi.

might just be a slightly less stright line, which could be compensated for
in software. Pretty sure the f-theta lens I have is made from PMMA. It
looks plasticish and most of the cheap lenses are made from this these days.
Really informative reddit conversation on this: https://www.reddit.com/

Unfortunately, the f-theta lens that you get with it is optimized for

the near infrared wavelength the laser printers
operate at and uses a
lot of energy when used with a 405nm laser. So direct mirror might
still be the best option (but I have never myself tried the f-theta
lenses in these equipments with 405nm, maybe it still is viable
enough?)
I am currently experimenting with bending mirrors to get a cone mirror
( https://github.com/hzeller/ldgraphy/blob/master/design.md#
cone-mirror-arc-exposure
), but these experiments were not that successful yet (but this
project is only one of many, so things are slower than they could be).

I have a BB and all
the other components are pretty easy to acquire.
I am currently working on a cape for the pocket beagle for LDGraphy.
which will be nice and compact and also cheaper as the PocketBeagle is
only $25.

Goal here is to actually make double sided boards with two lasers from
two sides.
Anyway, I will probably only have more time on this more later this
year or January to finish up things.

I’m not inclined to work on this alone, but if
other people have a
burning
need for something like this, then I would
certainly like to
collaborate!
