Has anyone gotten any of their MilkShape3d models to work in Warcraft III? Mine never show up in the editor for some reason.....

Yeah lots of times.

How do they not show up in the editor? Are they a checkered box? Are they just a shadow?

Be careful not to make them so tiny you cannot see them. I've done that a lot.

Every model I've ever made since the RDZMech (over a year ago) has worked perfectly. Make sure that your skin has got an alpha channel, even if it's totally opaque.

And once the Finaliser is complete, I'll be including a few full tutorials.

kdub's exporter. It exists somewhere on the net... I wasn't sure whether to package the Finaliser with it or not. Search google, I'm pretty sure it's still floating around out there.

And once you've learned how to model, export as you would anything from Milkshape, pass it through the Finaliser, then use YobGul's or Magos' tools to convert to MDX.
