self stopping boost converter

Hi guys,
I made a poor version of this coilgun :
I stop the boost converter charging the capacitors with a switch when voltages reaches 60V at my multimeter, but i'd like a self stopping boost converter, for example a relay wich cuts off the boost converter-capacitors link when voltage is around 60 or 70V (my capacitors are 80v ones)with per example a zener diode.
But I can't design by myself such a circuit.
Could anybody design one for me ?
Best Regards
Spike
PS :
Here is the schematic of the boost converter for those who want to see :

No one is going to design it for you and you break one of the rules by asking. We can help you design the circuit but you have to make an effort yourself.

If you are a new member then the old 4HV is a plethora of information for you.
3 places to look first. :) Google, old.4hv.org, and the HvWiki. This was on the old HV board:
Boost Converter as a Bank Charger I definetly feel this one should be in the Wiki as a resource...

find the datasheet on it. if it and print it out for reference. then google the part number with the word tutorial afterwards. someone out there might just love you.
