Kingston Brass Vintage Widespread 10in
Description
Widespread faucets epitomize luxury bathroom design, offering three-piece construction with separate spout and handle installations. This Kingston Brass Vintage Widespread 10-inch template provides the precise three-hole pattern required for professional bathroom countertop fabrication. The template features holes positioned at 5-inch intervals from center, creating the classic 10-inch spread that balances visual proportion with functional ergonomics. Each of the three holes measures 1.375 inches in diameter, accommodating the hot valve, cold valve, and spout assemblies standard to widespread faucet construction. Ideal for master bathroom vanities, powder room installations, and luxury hotel projects, this template ensures millimeter-perfect hole placement that eliminates the frustration of misaligned components during faucet installation. Whether fabricating marble, granite, quartz, or solid surface vanity tops, this DXF template integrates seamlessly with CNC workflows and traditional fabrication methods alike.

Whether fabricating marble, granite, quartz, or solid surface vanity tops, this DXF template integrates seamlessly with CNC workflows and traditional fabrication methods alike.
Installation Overview
Widespread faucet installations require three separate holes: left handle (hot), center spout, and right handle (cold). This template positions these holes at 5-inch intervals, creating a total spread of 10 inches from outer holes' centers. The center spout hole is positioned at coordinate (0, 0), with the hot handle at (-5, 0) and cold handle at (+5, 0). For bathroom vanity installations, center the three-hole pattern on the sink's width and position 3-5 inches from the backsplash depending on faucet reach and spout height. The 10-inch spread works best with vanity widths of 24-48 inches, providing comfortable hand spacing without overwhelming smaller sinks. Before cutting, verify your Kingston Brass model's exact specifications - while 10 inches is common for vintage widespread faucets, some models use 8-inch or 12-inch spreads. After drilling, install the valve bodies and spout before mounting the vanity to ensure proper alignment and make any necessary adjustments. Connect the hot and cold supply lines to their respective valves, and attach the spout's flexible connection lines according to manufacturer instructions.
CNC Cutting Notes
This template generates three circular holes positioned along a horizontal axis. Import the DXF into your CAM software and create three identical circular pocket toolpaths, each 1.375 inches in diameter. The hole positions are (-5, 0), (0, 0), and (5, 0) in absolute coordinates. For natural stone materials, program each hole with a 1.375-inch diamond core bit at 1200-1800 RPM with constant water cooling. Set your plunge rate to 3-5 inches per minute to prevent thermal shock and micro-cracking. When processing multiple vanity tops with identical layouts, create a nested file combining the faucet template with your sink cutout to minimize setup changes and reduce cycle time. Ensure at least 3 inches of material exists between the center spout hole and the sink cutout edge to maintain structural integrity. For materials thinner than 2cm, consider adding epoxy backing around the holes to reinforce against the torque applied during faucet installation. Always test-drill scrap material when working with new stone types or unfamiliar engineered products to verify cutting parameters before processing finished pieces.
Material Compatibility
This widespread faucet template works across all bathroom countertop materials. Natural stone options including marble, granite, and quartzite accommodate the three-hole pattern beautifully, but fabricators should position holes to avoid natural fissures and prominent veining that could weaken the material around hole edges. Cultured marble and solid surface materials drill cleanly with the three-hole pattern, and their homogeneous composition eliminates concerns about grain direction or weak planes. Engineered quartz handles widespread faucet holes well, though fabricators should use sharp diamond core bits to prevent chipping the resin-heavy material. For exotic materials like onyx or semi-precious stone slabs, reduce drilling speeds by 30-40% and double your cooling water flow to prevent heat-related damage to these temperature-sensitive materials. When working with ultra-thin porcelain slabs (6-12mm thickness), the 10-inch hole spacing may require substrate reinforcement between holes to prevent flexing during faucet operation. Wood vanity tops should use brad point bits to prevent tear-out, and holes should be sealed immediately after cutting to prevent moisture penetration.
Where to Buy
Kingston Brass vintage widespread faucets are available through bathroom specialty retailers and plumbing wholesalers. While big-box stores carry limited Kingston Brass selections, widespread faucets in vintage styling are typically found at dedicated kitchen and bath showrooms where clients can view the substantial construction and finish quality firsthand. Ferguson, Morrison Supply, and other professional plumbing distributors stock extensive Kingston Brass inventory including the vintage widespread series in multiple finish options. Online retailers such as FaucetDirect.com, eFaucets.com, and QualityBath.com offer competitive pricing and detailed product specifications including hole spacing requirements. For luxury renovations and custom home projects, recommend that clients visit showrooms to select finishes in person - the difference between polished chrome, brushed nickel, and oil-rubbed bronze is difficult to appreciate from online photos alone. When coordinating with interior designers, note that Kingston Brass offers matching accessories including towel bars, robe hooks, and toilet paper holders in the vintage collection to maintain design cohesion. Professional fabricators benefit from establishing accounts with authorized dealers to access trade pricing and ensure product availability aligns with project schedules.
