Never heard of a rod man? A welder is a welder, unless the certification's are different. I am a welding inspector by trade.

I think that a "rod-man" is a steel worker that installs reinforcing bars (or rebar).
Oh,, ok,, well ty,, i need to have a cinderella carriage built,, either a rod guy or a welder ,, i am not sure
well if you'll settle for wood I can handle that! 
Hi Kelly,
Just curious - for what reason do you need a cinderella carriage built? Lorraine.

Coming from a long line of welders.
perhaps it is a very old term not used anymore.
I asked my dad and he said he has only heard of welders refered to as welders.
He thought that a rod man may be the person that lays rebar before the concreat is poored.
I said that I was thinking that a rod man may be the person that bends metal (a pipe bender) and he agreed that for your project that is probly what u will need.
so I direct you to your yellow pages
look up metel shop and explain to them what u want.
