Manardariel has just left Hobbiton.
Tolkien

It is possible that Feanor wanted to create something undestructable, something that would not be broken. However; I agree with Amarie that Feanor really wasnīt familiar with death, or things fading away. So his motivation wasnīt to create something that wouldnīt die, but something that couldnīt be destroyed. That says a lot about a character, doesnīt it? Heīs not nescesarily thinking of the natrual end of a thing, but of making something that couldnīt be destroyed by force.
And that fits Feanor, who didnīt want anything he made be destroyed, and who opposed forces greater than him.
