My favorite steve is "focus beam - galvo blank blade - re collimate beam" with same size lens (i use 2" fl) used to focus beam works great very fast and keep your mass very small on galvo (I used a soda can cut and wrapped around galvo shaft held in place with a dab of 5 min epoxy use a file to get a knife edge on blade) Simple and cheap & effective as you can get!
