Default cantenna question

I'm putting together a cantenna like the one here:
http://www.turnpoint.net/wireless/cantennahowto.html

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.
