Neutrino oscillation experiments have shown that at least one neutrino has a mass greater than 50 meV. This fact has led to a resurgence of interest in the search for neutrinoless double beta decay. If this rare nuclear decay process exists it would demonstrate that Lepton number conservation is violated, that neutrinos are their own anti-particles and the decay rate would give an indication of the neutrino mass. This presentation will provide a description of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR project: an experiment being built to search for the process. This experiment will operate at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, SD, USA. The status of the assembly will be summarized.
