Hi Mike,
Here's a script I wrote not too long ago. It does somewhat what you wanted
but may have to be modified.
Hanaan
script:
------
set max_folder_size_in_mb to 1
set images_folder to "path:to:Original:"
set archive_folder to "path:to:archive:"
set subfolder_counter to 1
tell application "Finder"
repeat until (count files in folder images_folder) is 0
set folder_name to "folder " & subfolder_counter
set archive_sub_folder to make new folder in folder archive_folder with
properties {name:folder_name}
set image_list to list folder alias images_folder without invisibles
set file_list to {}
set total_MB to 0
set file_counter to 1
repeat while ((total_MB is less than max_folder_size_in_mb))
set fileName to item file_counter of image_list
set file_size to size of (info for alias (images_folder & fileName))
set file_size_in_MB to (file_size / 1024 / 1024)
set total_MB to total_MB + file_size_in_MB
set file_counter to file_counter + 1
move file fileName of folder images_folder to archive_sub_folderend repeatset
subfolder_counter to subfolder_counter + 1
end repeat
end tell
