cantenna question

I'm putting together a cantenna like the one here:

The instructions say to use 12 gauge copper wire for the N-connector. The photo shows solid wire. I have some 12 gauge twisted copper wire. Will that work?

Also, the writer says the can's dimensions are important. The one I want to use it 4" diameter x 6" length (the calculator says to put the N-connector 1.72 inches from the bottom). Are those good dimensions or should I look for another can? Thx.
