Looking for some constructive feedback on my grid calculator script?

I built a CSS grid calculator using jQuery for fluid grid systems because I wanted a quick way to create fluid grids on the fly. I don't often use frameworks to build sites and I'm not a Sass pro yet - but I'm getting close :) . I understand Sass may even be a better option for this. But I did this anyway because I feel there're still others out there that don't use Sass for fluid grid systems. I'd love for feedback on it's usefulness and the jQuery code. The jQuery is really basic so if there is a way to make it better let me know.

Pretty cool man,

What I'd love to see next is the ability to choice what classes to use in the markup it generates. If I wanted my columns to be named kevins-amazing-column-3 then I can enter that in, and I get that back in the markup.

Keep up the good work!

I would never use that class in the wild
