We have a Bailey Vendee, it has 2 wire basket type drawers under the cutlery draw, which (in our opinion) are not very practical as the items we store in them either drop or poke out. Has anybody done a modification or replaced these drawers. A few years there were plastic drawer making kits available in the D.I.Y. shops and I thought that I could make up 2 drawers from these as they were light, but I have searched everywhere including the web, but am unable to find them. We have also looked for plastic boxes but haven't found any to fit.

Get a sheet or two of plasticard (model shops) and line the baskets?  Maybe not the prettiest of solutions, but quick, cheap and practical, I would think.

Woodfit is the place to get drawer kits.   Otherwise make some card or fabric basket liners.

What I have done is get a couple of plastic gallon containers and cut them in half and placed the bottom piece in the trays.
