Member who used IKEA baskets for drawers?

Dang it, I've been looking for hours for the thread of a Member here who built new sliding drawers by using Ikea metal mesh baskets. The baskets slid in/out on a wood frame and the *drawer fronts* were attached directly to the baskets. Anyone recall this work? I am considering a similar build and would really like to revisit that thread....

Thanks heaps for any help!

Here you go.

The thread you are thinking of used Elfa Shelving from The Container Store (not IKEA) - but I'm sure you can do the same thing with any kind of wire bins.

That's it!!! I was using IKEA in every possible combination of search terms - now I see the problem.

THANK YOU!
