Question regarding torque specs

I am about to change my transmission pan and gasket for my 190E. I read that the torque specs for the pan bolts are ~106 in/lb (my mistake ~106 in/lb is not for the 190E, but for the 1997 C280, I got this info from the resources tab in the DIY section for transmission fluid change) however I do not have a torque wrench. Should I tighten it right until I feel it is tight, and then give it another quarter inch turn? I ask because I have bought 3 gaskets and this is my second pan this month (actually last month in June), but the first time it was uneven, which I didn't realize and so I over-torqued, splitting the gaskets and warpping the pan. My pan and gasket are scheduled to be delivered today. Thanks
