I don't know for sure if the place I was speaking of, that is closer to me sells these lids. Did a little search, and found the brand name "Superb". Found the company's website, and they are in fact Amish made, in Walnut Creek, Ohio. You can't buy directly from them.
The retail/wholesale, whom I spoke to one of the delivery drivers is Yoder's. He did say he remembered seeing sleeves of lids for sale in the retail section. They make all kinds of jams, jellies, and apple butter. Apparently the apple butter is a big seller, as he told me they make it year round. In fact, they get the apples from an orchard just a stone's throw from me, and picks up a number of 20 bushel bins often. Here is a link to that business, who knows, someone may want to try some of their products. They have quite an extensive line.

The Lehman's Hardware I spoke of, does in fact have them. It appears at this time, the large mouth lids are on backorder, and says the expected delivery date will be Jan.2022. Being this is Jan. 30, I'll assume it will be at least into Feb. now, LOL... They are a bit pricier than the Ball brand, but I've seen nothing but rave reviews about the Superb brand. There's even a YouTube video of a woman in Alaska giving a review, and actually bought hers through Lehman's Hardware.
She goes as far as weighing them. While they weigh the same, flexing the lids between her fingers, she's says they seem to be made of a sturdier metal. You can hear the lids sounds, when she does that. The biggest difference she describes, is the sealing compound itself. It's thicker, and spongier. That seems to be the problem with the Ball lids. They changed the compound for the sealing rings, and from memory, a little thinner. Seeing this many failures, of a once top of the line product, and now realizing it wasn't all me, makes me think Ball would get back to a product themselves, that was trusted, and worked very well for years. That is yet to be seen.
Here is a link to the Lehman's webpage, and a direct link to the canning lids & rings:
Canning Jar Lids - Wide Mouth (USA Made) This store is about 2 hours from me, and I stop in if I'm in the area. They have some really neat stuff, from new wood cook stoves, designed, and built to last a lifetime, gas refrigerators, all kinds of cookware, and everything in between. I bought a 6 qt. Immergood brand ice cream freezer w/electric motor from there 3 years ago. Pretty pricey, but, it is a dandy..!! It should last me the rest of my life.
You can spend hours looking through their online catalog, but you have to go to the store in person, to get a full grasp of all of the products they handle. And, in the basement of the two stores they have, are rows of upright electric freezers. These are rented to those of sects who still do not use electricity, due to their religious beliefs, to store meat in. Seems strange to me they can rent it, but can't own it, and that's OK. Just like motor vehicles, there are many that have the big 12 passenger vans, that transport the Amish, when going on long trips. You'll also see many crew cab 4wd pickup's with various trailers in the area too. Those that do that line of work, are known in the region, and beyond, as "Yoder Toter's". It apparently pays well, and would have to. I had a Supervisor who had connections with many Amish, and would take 2-3 places they needed to go. When he retired, he bought a good used 12 passenger van, with intentions of doing that, until he found out he needed $1 million in liability insurance. He wasn't planning on it being a full time job, just occasionally, and decided he didn't want to drive that many miles, or work that hard. Luckily, he did find someone who was needing a newer van to do that, so it worked out.
