[Victor Ograygor]

Is your character a wizard or cleric powerful enough to make any golems? That is about as cheap as your going to get. As for monsters that guard, think of all the guardian monsters you have ran into in other adventures, and think about how you can get hold of them. Your level is going to determine a lot of what you can do.

My magazines are currently in disarray, but one of the recent Dragon magazines had listings of cheaper golems in it.

You might be able to convince your dm to let you create cheaper but weaker golems.

Instead of a large iron golem, how about a medium one? Reduce his hitdice perhaps.

You want this:

Golemcraft 101

if I do say so myself.

Dragon Magazine recently introduced a number of lesser golems in the article "Lesser Golems: Automatons For Amateurs" by Campbell Pentney in Issue 341. They included the Fungus Golem, Junk Golem, Paper Golem, Tin Golem, Wax Golem, Wood Golem.

paper being the cheapist 400 to make 600 to buy only 21 hp however

Dreadguard from MM2 are also a potentially viable option. I think their creation price was changed in the 3.5 update booklet.

Golemcraft 101 is, in fact, excellent. If you can convince your GM to let you use it you can custom-design everything from Tiny household servants to Huge war machines.
