Have your forms build the data for two tables.

<%= text_field ‘modelOne’, 'column %>
<%= text_field ‘modelTwo’, 'column %>

— Controller Action

ModelOne.new(params[:modelOne]).save
ModelTwo.new(params[:modelTwo]).save

That is a super simplified way of doing it. You might want to have some
checks on save, and validations and such.

It sounds to me like your real issue is database normalization. Is there
a compelling reason to repeat the data like this?
