1 IP, 2 Nameservers. I just don't get it.

Right, so here's what I am trying to accomplish:
I have 1 IP and I want to setup 2 'custom'/own nameservers like ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com
My registrar does not allow that both nameservers have the same IP. Generally this is a good thing, but I am trying to setup something for test purposes. I am not going to run this in a production environment so you can turn off the alarm sounds.
Problem is that I just don't seem to get how this is supposed to work. I got some help from a nice provider here on LET, but since that service is unmanaged, I don't want to bother him again with my newbie questions.
He advised me to setup nameservers like this: ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.myotherdomain.com. That's fine with me as well.
Problem is I have no idea how. An A record surely doesn't suffice right?
I found this, but is this what I want?

If so, how do my DNS records look for mydomain.com?
I am seriously confused.

Thanks.
