Surgical apparatus for use in contouring medical implants comprises a transparent enclosure adapted to be located on a metallic work surface in an operating theater, the enclosure being sized to enable manipulation of an implant therein by a surgeon for contouring, a stand connected to the enclosure for adjustably positioning and fixing a surgical drill in a preselected orientation with respect to the work surface such that the drill bit projects throughout an opening into the interior of the enclosure, the stand carrying a magnetic mechanism so as to enable the stand to be immobilized with respect to the work surface, and a movable cutting block having a disposable cutting surface thereon. The stand is connected to the enclosure by a metal tongue, slidably carried by the stand, which is received within a slot on the underside of the enclosure, and the cutting block is formed with a magnetic mechanism so as to enable immobilization of the cutting block with respect to the tongue.
