and i am planing to get 7 8 foot long 2x4s. 1 4x4. 10-15 sq ft of turf. 4-5 sheets of plywood.  will this be all enough to build a 5 foot high table and down ramp plus a landing with turf and some  3 2 foot wide boxes to go over my grass?  by the way my table is gonna be 5 feet long by around 3 feeet wide and down ramp will be 2 1/2 feet.  will this be enough suppplis?

you cant really be exactly positive. if i were you i would by less if anything, that way you can get more later if you need it. or i guess you could just take it back. so either way you are safe

The widest your turf should ever be is 3 feet, and that is still too wide in my opinion.  Get it in rolls of 2x15 or 2x30.  If turf is .99 square foot around you, I would go buy it somewhere else, I've found turf to be .29 at its cheapest at Menards.
