Can anyone tell what was used for Sacrament service for the water before the current plastic or paper cups. I'm wondering if the church ever used a wooden tray with glass cups. & if so what was the mating bread tray?

Our ward had one when I was in Ym. I’ve been looking to get some for our ward now but can’t find them. I remember what it looked like so I may just build one

Depending on your climate and such, please be careful of mold growth in the tubing and around the orifices. Mold can make at least some people pretty sick.

This device was developed by my state patriarch when I was a very young boy. He actually had it patented until 2011 when it expired. It is a device that hooks directly to the faucet and then has a lever on top you place the tray inside the device and you fill up one side at a time flipping around and you fill up the other. It actually is a very ingenious device and from my experience using it as a youth, it did save a significant amount of time for us. That being said the man who invented this device which has been used in many Western areas of the United states, was in our Ward and hook the unit up himself. It stayed permanently connected to the faucet so we didn't have any issues but we were able to detach it as we cleaned it on a routine basis. Hopefully this helps, I know this is an old thread but maybe someone will look for it and gain a little bit of insight.
