Hello I have a question about this feat :
You have vowed to construct a defender for your community.
Prerequisite(s): Your community has come under persecution and requires considerable defense, or you have the Raiders, the Righting a Wrong, The War, or The Way Things Work background.
Benefit(s): You temporarily gain the Craft Construct feat for the purposes of building one golem to satisfy the goal of this story feat. You do not need to meet Craft Construct’s prerequisites, and it can’t be used as a prerequisite for any other crafting endeavor.
Goal: Craft a golem of CR 5 or greater and donate it to your community for its defense against persecution.
You and your allies must fund the construction, not the community. You must be significantly involved in the golem’s construction. After completion, this golem cannot be used as a personal adventuring companion; it is the property of the community to which it was dedicated. The donated creature must be a golem and not another type of construct, such as an animated object.
Completion Benefit(s): You gain Craft Construct as a bonus feat without meeting its prerequisites and can use it for any purpose. The cost to build any construct that normally costs less than the cost of your donated golem is permanently reduced by 10%; the cost of the base materials is not reduced, however.
****
For a fighter for example to create a construct, do the fighter use the appropriate craft as he don't have the level caster ?
(As the master craftsman feat)
Thanks for your future answer.

My answer is the same, you get the feat but you can't make any constructs without caster levels or a work around. You have the crafting feat but not the caster level to use it for anything.

Before you complete the feat you get "You temporarily gain the Craft Construct feat for the purposes of building one golem to satisfy the goal of this story feat. You do not need to meet Craft Construct’s prerequisites, and it can’t be used as a prerequisite for any other crafting endeavor." and once you complete the feat you can use it for anything (I can't think of anything other than crafting constructs and using it as a prerequisite), but nowhere does it say you can ignore other prerequisites for making the constructs.

[...] but you can't make any constructs without caster levels or a work around. You have the crafting feat but not the caster level to use it for anything.
The DC to create a magic item increases by 5 for each prerequisite the caster does not meet. The only exception to this is the requisite item creation feat, which is mandatory.
You have the prerequisite feat, which is the only mandatory prerequisite. Any other prerequisite you do not meet can be bypassed with a +5 to DC.
In addition, constructs typically do not include "caster level X" as a prerequisite; rather, the caster level is part of your target DC. So you don't even add +5 to the DC for not meeting that caster level.
