Industrial Latch Circuit control????

I have two military 800T type illuminated pushbuttons I want to use as my
enable / disable controls for my tesla coil.

What are your ideas for using momentary switches for a relay latch circuit.

My current idea is:

The ENABLE pushbutton is inline between 115VAC and the input 115VAC on the
relay and is wired for normally open.
The DISABLE pushbutton is wired between the output of the relay  and the
input 115VAC on the relay and is wired for normally closed.  There will also
be a normally closed E-STOP mushroom button (opened when pushed) between the
output of the relay and the tesla coil.

So when you push the ENABLE pushbutton the relay switches on and the relay
output is now 115VAC and is looped backed to
the input 115VAC on the relay so when the ENABLE is released, the relay is
latched through itself.
When you press the DISABLE pushbutton, you break the 115VAC going to the
input of the relay and turn it off.

Thanks
