I see that Lidl have some SDS-Plus bit sets (chisels, etc.) coming up
soon - but one of the sets contains wood augers. Why would you use a
wood auger in an SDS drill - or am I missing something?


SDS is just the type of chuck fitted.
It is not a type of drilling action.

Whilst we are on the topic, what does SDS stand for?


Steck Dreh Sitz which translates roughly to "Insert, twist, stay".
