Is it fair to say that all 240v woodworking equipment runs without neutrals?
I am running a new circuit and would prefer to use 10/2 rather than 10/3;
but sure don't want to do it twice.

I assume you are talking about 10/2 WITH GROUND. You don't need a
neutral, but you definitely need a ground.

That pretty much goes without saying... I think you'd have a pretty tough time
buying 10/2, or anything else, withOUT ground, even if you tried. Certainly
all of the 14, 12, and 10-ga cables that the home center stores carry have a
ground.
