If it is a thread no amount of moving it around will get it out. I’m thinking the needle in mine was stuck pretty fast. A big hint should be a broken needle in the shaft. It never occurred to me to always check that on any machine stuck or not. Usually I take apart the bobbin carrier. I don’t know if I did that or not. The needle still could be stuck behind all that. Thread can be wrapped around almost anywhere. I will say the PFFAF I had turned really sweet once it had all that oil on it. Sews through about anything.
