Yup. It must have been in the Estes instruction manual or something for Eli and me to remember it like this. You're supposed to have a fillet of glue on each side of where the fin attaches to the body, to make sure the joint is strong.
It's the same meaning as your welding usage, I'm pretty sure, and I've seen it used this way in plenty of other contexts (say, carpentry). But model rocket fins are what come to mind first.
