Oh wow. That's definitely not good. Well you'll need to replace the bobbin case, and needle plate. Even the slightest burr can cause havoc. you could try smoothing down burrs with some fine sand paper but you'll need to replace the case eventually if you can't get this problem identified and fixed.
Next look for a build up or stray threads under and around the needle plate/bobbin area. Make absolutely certain you have the right needles for your machine.

Turned out I am an idiot and had my needle in backwards, leading to the tangling. No idea why the needle plate would not unscrew, but my superhero husband got it off!

there could be thread caught in the tension disc in the top of the machine you can get the cover off to clear the thread but it is a bit tricky to get back on

Hi,
It sounds like something on the bobbin case may have been knocked out of adjustment. I would take the bobbin case to a repair shop to have it adjusted. First, be sure you've cleaned all bits of thread that may have gotten caught in the area. Blow it out with compressed air if you have it. Then, start with a new needle and be sure you are threading the top correctly. Try it again and if a good cleaning and proper threading doesn't do it, then take the bobbin case in for repair.
Hope this helps. If it does, I'd appreciate your vote. Thanks,
Handie Andie

Has the bobbin case dislodged and moved? there should be two red marks one on the bobbin case and one on the outer holder, are they lining up? Sometimes as these cases are held by a magnet, they will get dislodged and move slightly, especially in a jam up.
Take out the bobbin case and clean under it, then replace it matching up the red marks.
If the bobbin case has actaully been struck by the needle during a dislodgement, it may well pierce the bobbin case plastic, look for burring or marks on the outer flange area. If this has occured, the thread may catch on the burr as it comes over the bobbin and jam again.
You can buy a new bobbin case if yours is damaged or maybe just file the burring with an emery board (remove it from the machine first of course).
Lastly, check your needle hasn't been bent, burred, or put in backwards, any of these can prevent a stitch from forming.
If all the above fails, then it is possible that the timing has been knocked out and you will need to get it serviced by a technician.
