What are the ideal HPs for these two tools?

Thanks


For a BS it could be anywhere between 2 hp and 4.5 hp, what do you want to
do with the BS?


Cut wood. J/K....I don't do any major work, yet, but I do plan to purchase
one soon enough and want to get something with potential without having
regrets of buying anything of insufficient power then requiring the need to
buy something better.

For a DP it could be anywhere between 1/3 hp and 1 hp, what do you want to
do with the DP?


Drill holes. lol.....similar reason as the BS.
