Paul,
I was looking through my pile of parts and came across 5 nice looking
'wiggins' couplings I bought through the list a while ago. I was just about
to order Aeroquip fittings for my water lines. Could you refresh my memory
on how these great looking gizmos get hooked up? How do they attach to the
hose? Do I have to have them welded to standard fittings? Does one end weld
to the radiator?
What O rings do I need for them?

You can tig weld them or bond them on. I bonded one and boiled it
in water while it was pressurized to 50 psi with no problem.
Use a tube to align them. You will need two per water connection
minimum I suspect. Do you have five sets?
Butch may have some left.
Don't destroy the NC program just yet Butch.
The wiggins time will come soon.
