http://www.lehmans.com is a company that supplies various household 
and farm equipment to non-electric-using folks, such as the Amish.  
They sell 7 different styles of churns, including the old-fashioned type 
that is a copper-bound wooden cylinder with a dasher.  A mini churn 
that churns 1-1/2 quarts of milk and will produce 2-1/2 lbs. of butter will 
cost you $52.50.  (Less if you want one that is only decorative and has 
not been lined with beeswax.)

Lehman's also sells dutch ovens.  The sizes range from a 2-quart to a 
12-quart.  I don't know how they compare in quality and price to other 
suppliers.  I have never dealt with this company, but I often see them 
mentioned around the Net when people are discussing things like hand-
cranked ice-cream makers or bread-dough kneaders.
