===Bucyrus Copper Kettle Works Ltd.===
Bucyrus Copper Kettle Works is a 150 year old shop that began operations shortly after the Civil War. Seasonal demand for apple butter kettles at the local hardware store led the owners to retrain the store’s tinsmiths as coppersmiths to produce kettles locally. A few years later, the partnership that ran the hardware store dissolved. One partner opened a new company on South Walnut Street where copper kettles and other products continue to be made using traditional processes.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.statenews.org/section/the-ohio-newsroom/2024-05-31/one-ohio-shop-has-been-producing-copper-kettles-for-150-years |title = One Ohio shop has been producing copper kettles for 150 years}}</ref>
