Feanor was self-centered in that he knew that he was the most powerful of the Children of Illuvatar. If you knew this, would you really want help from any lesser beings? If he is the greatest craftsmen of all of the Children of Illuvatar, then by default anything that he collaborates with someone else with, no matter who it is, will be worse than if he had made it himself. The only exception to this is when he is learning new things (i.e. learning of Melkor the forgery of weaposn, etc.)

Excellent post, dead on! Fëanor was unequaled; and hence he became what he became..
