Alternatively, or in addition, the bone engagement surface 2033 is configured to receive the surface of the bone, where the resection guide 2020a is to be placed. Specifically, a user, based on a prescription and/or in consultation with a surgeon, may determine a planned position for a resection guide 2020a on a lateral surface of a bone of the patient. The user may then reflect this planned position using a model of the bone of the patient and a model of the resection guide 2020a. Because the model of the bone of the patient is a highly accurate representation, the bone engagement surface 2033 defined on the medial side 2032 of the model of the resection guide 2020a accurately includes the features and aspects of the surface of the bone of the patient. Examples of features and aspects of a bone that the bone engagement surface 2033 can include, but are not limited to, a tuberosity, tubercle, crest, spine, process, trochanter, linea, fossa, foramen, notch, groove or sulcus, a protrusion, a projection, a tuberosity, a cavity, a void, a divot, a tab, an extension, a hook, a curve, or the like of the surface of the bone model, but in a reverse or inverse configuration. For example, where a cavity is on a surface of the bone model (and the bone of the patient) a protrusion exists on the bone engagement surface 2033 exists that fits into the cavity.
