Practically all we can do with a time crystal is to measure it with the lightest possible touch and hope it doesn't break the periodicity. (So far, afaik, the periodicity has always been broken by the measurement process's energy input).

I don't know what we could do with large numbers of time crystals, though. One can't pick up a snowflake in one's bare hands and use it like a buzz saw to cut a sheet of paper (the snowflake melts on contact), but an avalanche of snowflakes can snap trees. Maybe for time crystals that rotate light a predictable amount at a given time t_x, we could create some sort of interesting lens from a large cloud of such time crystals arranged at different distances from a bright light source -- a sort of "anti-fog".
