Hello.

Sounds basic, but i'm having a crazy time trying to work it out, assume I know nothing about automator, I found the application, that's about it.

I have a folder structure where i need to add in a subfolder to many individually numbered folders. I have attached a screenshot of the expanded finder view so my problem makes more sense, I have done a couple manually to illustrate what i need to achieve...

• current folder "part number" / 30xfiles "frame_001-030"
Screen Shot 2016-06-01 at 11.18.08.png

and what i need to create:

• current folder "part number" / new folder "images" / 30xfiles "frame_001-030"
Screen Shot 2016-06-01 at 11.18.19.png


If anyone could help - in super plain step by step instructions that would be mega :)
thanks in advance

Hello and welcome.

I am not very well versed in AppleScript/Automator. Maybe the folks over at MacScripter can give you a little assistance.
