Help identifying Some wood and ferrule material

[NJS Custom Cues]

I need some help identifying some wood and ferrule material. The ferrule material I got from Prather in a grab bag and have no idea what it is. As for the ferrule material, if no one can tell from the pictures, maybe there is some test I can do to figure it out. I think the material is either Delrin White, or Pure Acrylic, but I could be way off base. There are some various woods I cannot identify either so any help would be great. One other thing there is no linen in the ferrule material or anything like it.


Picture 1 and 2 are the ferrule material.
